Hello, I’m Lydia! Mom of three, a medical graduate, and a lifelong lover of food and healthy living. My journey in the kitchen began as a child, helping my grandma prepare delicious dishes that, while comforting, often needed a healthier twist. By age 10, I was developing my own recipes, inspired by her cooking but focused on balanced, nourishing ingredients. 

​

With a background in functional medicine and a love for chemistry, I believe that food has the power to heal. Over the years, I’ve drawn from my heritage, my exposure to diverse cuisines, and my life as a mom to craft recipes that are simple, nourishing, and packed with flavor. Cooking with my kids has taught me that quality ingredients and a bit of creativity go a long way.

​

Here, I’m excited to share my favorite recipes, inspired by family traditions, Mediterranean roots, science, and the joy of bringing loved ones together over a healthy meal. I hope you’ll find inspiration to cook, create, and savor the journey towards a healthier lifestyle with those you love most.
