My 9 Cooking Motto
- Veg-focused, but not labelling as vegetarian or vegan
- Colourful diet for diversified nutrients and microbiomes
- Actively incorporate more vegetables in every dish
- It’s fine to eat meat, while it plays a minor part of our diets
- Not worrying about eating meats or dairy
- Whole-food first
- Sauce compliment a dish, not to be eaten as a main
- Cook at home whenever possible
- Listen to the body
