Katy Allan is the woman behind Savoring the Flavoring  She is the mother of three boys and makes a dinner I wish I could be a part of every night. She is a writer, food blogger and loves cooking everything homemade. Her Mission: “to make the Standard American Diet a little less SAD, one home-cooked, real-food recipe at a time.”

In this episode Katie shares about her passion for food and schools me on some cooking basics like why I should use avocado oil instead of olive oil for certain things (which was super helpful because I get lazy and just use olive oil for everything!) We also talk about not being afraid of fat and salt and Katie shares a couple of amazing recipes as well as some simple meal planning ideas.

My question for you all- anyone else hide the expensive almond butter from the rest of their family?!
