Well hello there

 

Hi, I'm Adriana Velez. I do communications for the grassroots food-change organization Brooklyn Food Coalition and I'm a freelance food writer. 

You can follow me on Twitter @AdrianaV and you can contact me at adriana.whatsfordinner (at) gmail.com.

About the "recipes"

I'm a home cook, not a professional. I have no culinary training. I learned to cook reading Saveur and The Joy of Cooking. Most of the recipes here were conceived and tested all in one night. Results may vary!

I try to use locally-grown, organic (or minimally treated) produce, grass-fed beef, pasture-raised pork, and free-range poultry whenever possible. I like cooking for the seasons.

I live in Brooklyn, New York with my husband Lane Twitchell and our son Jasper.
