Who Is Canela?
I'm an amateur chef and the girlfriend of a celebrity chef. I've been in the kitchen since I was a little girl and my culinary tastes have evolved with time, age and travel. I'm the mom of 3 amazing young people, 22, 21 & 17. I'm the grandmother of a beautiful baby boy. I'm a published writer, retired actress but most importantly, I love to EAT!
My Philosophy
Food is meant to be enjoyed! Having a food allergy or other dietary related health issues shouldn't stop you from enjoying a good meal! Many of our "genetic" health problems are easily resolved through diet. With a little information, you can start rethinking how you view food and still enjoy every delicious morsel. Rethinking ingredients along with practice, can set you on the right path to healthier, happier living.
Cooking doesn't have to be an arduous task. If you can read, you can cook!
