It's better to get the nutrients for healthy skin from food, not supplements. Salmon, walnuts, blueberries, spinach... lots of my favorite foods happen to be amazing for skin too.

My mother's kitchen was built to be the focal point of our house. I got into the kitchen often as a child.

I cook mostly vegetarian vegetable and bean stews. Quinoa salads. I make my mother-in-law's recipe for chicken and barley stew all the time.

Patience is the secret to good food.

I had decided I wanted to write about food, and I knew the only way to do that is to speak with authority, which meant learning the language and knowing what that experience is like.

I eat for a living, so working out is definitely part of my job, the same way that the eating, tasting, and drinking is.

At the beginning of the week, I roast a ton of vegetables so I can use them for the next few days. I also plan out meals in advance.
