What does it mean to be a PickyEater? 

When people think of being a “picky eater,” they think of the little kid who doesn’t want to eat anything except ice cream for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

But being a PickyEater can be something very different: It can be something positive that helps you transform your way to a healthier, happier life.

This is what it means to be a PickyEater:

I love this! Great message. I love your recipes. You’re even teaching me new words like cilantro (which we call coriander in Australia) :P . I’ll be travelling to San Francisco so I was wondering if you had any recommendations of good places to eat. Thanks for your blog and keep writing :)

Aw thank you so much Megha! It’s so nice to meet you :) That’s funny that you call cilantro coriander – I think it’s called that in Indian cooking as well! So yes, I definitely have a ton of recommendations on where to eat in SF (it’s a great food town). First off, you have to visit The Ferry Building and their Farmer’s Market on Saturday mornings – I think it’s open until 2pm. You can see my post and pictures from it here. Also – here is my list for some of my favorite restaurants in SF, and if you’re vegan you have to visit Millennium too! Hope that helps, enjoy your trip out here!

This is such a great philosophy for the college student who does not want to pack on the pounds from the dining halls and fast food places on campus and instead is self-teaching a healthy way to consume! Thank you for the inspiration!

I just discovered this blog through Skinny Taste. I am a vegetarian who struggles to cook healthy meals for myself and especially my family, who eats meat. I feel like I have finally landed on something. Will comment as I try new recipes..

The Picky Eater is a website that promotes healthy living through healthy eating at a time where health is a great concern to children and adults alike. With a feel and look that is new, hip, and vibrant I feel reading the site to some extent addictive. Photos and simple recipes make for an easy guide to healthy eating which has enticed me to even give cooking a try as it seems so easy to do in The Picky Eater. Thank you and here’s to my new found journey to healthy eating.
