"Raising vegetarian children's is exciting and has many rewards, but it does require that parents be informed, supportive, adaptable and creative". This is a quote from a book I started reading last night (Raising Vegetarian Children). For me being vegetarian has been a way of life for the last 25 years, and I used to take that for granted until my daughter came. I've always feel very comfortable with a vegetarian diet, but when you think of your children you tend to be more aware of their health and nutritious requirements. For me It's been a journey of rediscovery, but It's been also a reinforcing way to affirm my believes. Now I am confident of my daughters health and well being. She's a very healthy Kid!
New Beginning
- Since my daughter Isabela started kindergarden, now I have a little extra time to share with you my experience in vegetarian cooking. Although my background is Biology and Culinary Arts, I'm starting to get the feel of blogging thanks to my very patient husband José. In this blog I will share my day to day cooking of vegetarian recipes, my insight in raising vegetarian children and my love for baking and pastries. Being from Venezuela, I will have many latin american approaches, and with my Spanish and Middle Eastern heritage I will add a twist on traditional vegetarian cooking. I will gladly receive and answer as good as I can requests for different recipes, but mostly I will have fun cooking along with you.

I was raised vegetarian from birth, and now I'm raising my daughter vegetarian from birth.
I believe being vegetarian gave me an academic edge in school and helped me achieve above average results.
And my daughter is unbelievably healthy - she very rarely gets sick, even when the rest of us are.
It's the meat and dairy industries that constantly promote the idea that animal products are vital for good health. I think they're a bit biased. ;)
