This is just the beginning… and already I found how important baking soda is… Gord and Deb know that too ;)
I would like to dedicate this blog to my husband Brian Archimedes Mendoza Dominguez who has been a miracle in my life, yes!!! a miracle. You will find out why, Brian I LOVE YOU!!!
For the next two years we will be travelling and finding every second that Vancouver is a great place to live specially because of the variety of food and good stuff. However Vancouver is not the “only” place to live and it would be sad not to explore the world when we have received an important message and invitation to do it. Of course everything is a trade off; our trade off in this trip (the most important one) is food. Our home will be anywhere and that is ok, we will go from tenting to mansions to sheds and for a moment we will own all without having to pay insurance…
Food, right… food has been always a struggle. When I first met Brian I had no clue about how to boil water because I never had to cook, my activities at home were more “men” oriented than “women” oriented, what that really means is that I had to learn how to cook if I wanted to make him happy. I tried for a long time and he ate whatever I cooked but when he actually became proud of me was after I met Patricia Chuey, an impressive professional when it comes to food and proper diet. She educated me enough that I am another individual now and for that I am thankful.
Anyway… The struggle will continue but more than that it will be a challenge to cook “On the road” with a limited budget of about $6/day for two people. It can be done for sure, the interesting part is how.
In this blog I will share with you as we go dishes that we either cook “On the road” and/or we eat for under $6/day keeping ourselves healthy and strong for those long journeys. I will also point out those “Exceptional dishes” that we may find over $6 and that likely they were a gift from a lovely person.
I hope you enjoy!!!
Forgot to mention that the wonderful dish in the picture above is a great memory of one of the last real Canadian meals we had before we left Vancouver... Julia and George thank you very much for that evening!!!
