South of the Border Healthy Cooking
Flavors from Mexico and South America that are sure to excite your tastebuds and spark your interest in healthy cooking. Growing up as an athlete and a “culinary investigator”, I have been fortunate to travel the world and try a variety of flavors. Some of my favorite flavors come from south of the border, including the flavors of South America and the Oaxaca region of Mexico.
