Farmer’s Market SoCal Winter
What would you make with a pile of greens, microgreens, grapefruit, and pomegranates? I decided to make a delicious salad with a lime vinaigrette.
Pomponio Ranch Meat
Working with grass-fed beef is always a delight. It is more sustainable and nutritious but it is also more lean. We have a lot of fun pairing herbs, garlic, seasonings, and vegetables when styling the meat. But the best part is when we get to design recipes and photograph them.

Pumpkin Flan
I think this pumpkin flan is one of my favorite pumpkin desserts ever. The rich caramel drips down the firm spicy custard-rich pumpkin flan and is a show stopper. There is no pie dough needed! Don’t you just love the color-rich pomegranate arils on the top?
