Why I'm Here

Welcome, and thank you for stopping at Good Food And Love:)
 

I’m Jenny, and I truly love being “Aunty Chef”.  I'm joyful when I'm cooking for my family and friends, and I love teaching children how to have fun in the kitchen while bringing more nourishment into the foods they eat.
 

I love making nourishing, delicious food with simple ingredients, especially seasonal produce fresh from our local Okanagan farms. My cooking is thoughtful without being complicated, and it always considers the people I’m feeding. Whether I’m making a plant-based meal for myself, adding the spicy flavours my husband loves, or adapting a dish for the kids, there’s always room for different tastes around my table.
 

My passion also extends to my volunteer work as President of Chefs in the Classroom, helping children learn to grow, cook and enjoy good food.
 

Good Food and Love is where I share that approach with you: clear guidance, flexible recipes and encouragement to use what’s in season and what you have on hand. I want you to feel confident making food that suits your life—with peace in the kitchen and pleasure at the table.

I don't claim to invent all the recipes I share.  Often, I'm learning from cooks and chefs much more skilled than I am, but I'm always looking at how I can adjust and adapt for my family's preferences.  One thing I've learned along the way is that we don't need to follow recipes to the letter - take inspiration where it comes and make meals your own.
Most importantly - Enjoy!
