My familia is big on gatherings and parties. Every time we’re together, which is about once a week we always put out grazing plates and snacks. After all, feeding people is how we say you’re welcome here and I love you. Over the years these snacks have evolved. These days I like to stick to something that will make my body feel good. While I learned to cook from my mother, now she learns new and healthy ways to feed the family from me!
