hi there!
I'm Kari - welcome to my kitchen! Here, the focus is on adding beauty to life through food. To me, a beautiful ingredient is plant-based, in its natural form, and grown with care. It's beneficial to people while taking it easy on the planet. I like to keep my recipes and food ideas fuss-free so that you can enjoy a plant-rich lifestyle, even on a busy weeknight. I'm off to the farmers market - happy eating!
