Andrew’s Kitchen

Want delicious and nutritious recipes? More than anything, I’m an enthusiastic home cook, not exactly a chef. However, I’ve worked as a cook in seafood restaurants, homemade pasta shops, and even a Zen monastery in the mountains of New Mexico. I’m also the author of Oakland: New Urban Eating, an ethnographic cookbook about Oakland’s rise to culinary recognition. Contact me at ellisjunior@gmail.com to learn more.

Nutrition Blogs

Want the latest blogs on nutrition? We advocate for a diet of high quality proteins, and a large variety of fruit and vegetables. This approach covers all bases, hitting your macro and micro needs. A vegetarian or vegan approach can still hit all your needs but care must be taken as certain essential amino acids and vitamins and minerals are commonly missing in a vegetarian/vegan diet that can negatively impact health.
