My name is Pamela Wasabi. Mom of a very special beautiful girl by the name of Violetta Sky. Wife to soulmate Duke. A certified Health Coach by the Institute of Integrative Nutrition and a Vegan Chef. But don’t get intimidated by the Chef title, I just gave it to myself since I’m the one cooking at home for my family, my friends and now you. I found that is the kitchen where I express myself the best. Hence, I believe the Chef word, suits me.

But it has not always been “peaches and creme” in the kitchen. To be honest, a year ago I was not even allowed in the kitchen. I didn’t know how to cook, what to do with food or had any understanding of it. I didn’t even like food. Just ate because I had to. It’s all different now. I taught myself how to cook, and I believe you can learn too.

It all started after I got pregnant. I was very confused on what I should eat with my little baby in my tummy. One book said one thing, this other site said another. It was stressful, annoying, and painful for me (I had that morning sickness). Searching for answers, I decided to grab this nutrition and food issue by the horns. I was not gonna let anyone tell me what or how I should feed my baby and myself. I was gonna figure it all out unveiling the truth about foods, a plant-based diet and getting in touch with my body. And so my journey begun. After my first nutrition class I started experimenting in the kitchen. It was first in the mornings, then I graduated to nights. Then overnight, then everyday, then anytime I had a day off I would spend it in the kitchen. Food became my art, vegan my passion, and my hands and 5 senses my teacher.

I invite you to use this blog as a cooking and health guide. Try my recipes, follow my advises and please ask me any questions or doubts you may have. From one busy parent to the other one, the health of our family is in our hands and we should all be chefs in our own kitchens and experts in our kids’ nutrition.

Happy Cooking!
