I met Nico in Spain.
I met him on my second night in Spain in a dormitory in a small place called Roncesvalles. I only spoke with him briefly, but I remembered him. Maybe it was something in those deep, chocolate eyes of his. Or the cadence of his conversation — that Italian lilt.
Does this sound like a love story yet? It sort of is. I fell in love with many people and things in Spain and Nico is one of them.

I met Jeff several months ago at a dinner party. Naturally, the topic of food came up and it turned out that I wasn’t the only blogger in the room! I love when this happens, especially when the other blogger’s topic of choice is ice cream. We decided to team up for this blog post because I love ice cream and writing and Jeff is a mad scientist ice cream aficionado, as you’ll read below!

Meet Katie, Flexitarian + Crispy Baked Orange Tofu
Crispy Baked Orange Tofu is a deliciously sweet and spicy, healthy substitution for your favorite Chinese takeout meal. I don’t even notice the reduction in calories, saturated fat, or sodium and you won’t either!
The Every Kitchen’s Food Stories series continues with fellow dietitian and flexitarian, Katie Pfeffer. Katie’s is a story I think many of us can relate to.

As she got older, both her palate and her knowledge widened and Katie is now the head chef of her flexitarian home kitchen. If you’re not sure what “flexitarian” means, read her food story to find out!

Our okonomiyaki is made of red cabbage and topped with pickled pink ginger, scallions, and dried seaweed, but since okonomi translates to “how you like,” you can make okonomiyaki with any mix of ingredients and toppings you choose.
