Instant Pot Carnitas

Hi, I'm Heather!

As Julia Child would say, "No one is born a great cook, one learns by doing!"

Playing school in my childhood basement and inventing meals for my working mom both sparked a love of caring and creating that has shaped my life. It carried me into the classroom as a first-grade teacher and into the kitchen as a personal chef and food creator. Today, I help others make good food and lasting memories, one recipe at a time.

I live in Minneapolis, MN, with my husband Tim, our three kids, and Birdie, our bernedoodle.
