Crowd-pleasing, nourishing, veggie-filled recipes that use adventurous global flavors and simple ingredients. I'm Jodi, author, creator, and photographer of happy hearted kitchen blog. Food to me is so much more than just a recipe or a grocery list, it's about gathering people around a table for a moment of real nourishment. I cook vegetarian, mostly vegan, meals and have a love affair with seasonal produce. I also wholeheartedly believe in the power of a good cookie and a cup of tea, it can completely turn your day around. Just like eating, I know that life is all about balance, and as much as I love being in the kitchen, I also need moments exploring the outdoors. Mountains, camping, hiking, skiing - every adventure needs good snacks. Hoping my happy-hearted kitchen fills your hearts, bellies + kitchen tables.
