The pleasure of cooking and inviting the loved ones to the table... http://www.claudiashomecooking.c This site is the perfect expression of my two passions.
I am a native Romanian, oil and gas professional, wife and proud mom of two beautiful children. I met my husband years ago when he was an American expatriate in Romania. He was amazed by the fact that Romanians go to the vegetable and meat market two to three times a week and cook freshly every day. Over a period of two years he has lost 20 pounds jut by eating the regular Romanian food, no fancy
diets or exercise. He asked me to marry him…and this is how I became a Texan.DSC_0078I love eating healthy tasty food and truly enjoy the satisfaction of my “crew” at the dinner table complementing my cooking. I love to experience new combinations and try something new as often as possible. This site is coming straight from my kitchen and is a collection of my home cooked recipes. It started because I wanted to have all of my keeper dishes in one place. Then I realised that I enjoy photography as much as I enjoy cooking and the combinations are endless. Each recipe has been cooked at least one time and some recipes here are part of my regular cooking portfolio. The photos posted on the site are photos of the actual prepared dishes as described by the recipe. In today’s world, we eat industrial, highly processed foods depriving our bodies of important nutrients. The convenience of fast eating pays a high price over time, leading to health issues. Food gives us the energy to live and we should give preparing it the consideration it deserves. Cooking our own food is a healthy way of living. This way we can take control of what we eat by using fresh and quality ingredients. Equally important is the pleasure we can bring to the family and people we cook for. Let’s cook together!
