I had been honoured to receive the Ignazio Bondi award in early 2019 for the exceptional knowledge of Food Theory. You can read some of Food Theory blog publications HERE.

In 2018, I had been working on a Colorectal Cancer Canada project as part of GBC Food Innovation & Research Studio team, developing and testing healthy recipes that can fight cancer. I had personally developed the Lentil Buckwheat Pilaf with Pumpkin Seeds, Carrots and Goji Berries recipe and Chicken Orzo with Kale & Turmeric recipe, both inspired by my Russian and Cypriot backgrounds. I had also contributed to the Frittata with Artichokes, Tomatoes, Feta Cheese and Rosemary recipe and Lemon Blueberry Muffins recipe.

Food That Fight Cancer is a great project by Colorectal Cancer Canada that had already saved many lives. You can follow this project and read more of its recipes HERE. Health is the first thing that I keep in mind when developing my recipes. More than that, all of my recipes are nutritiously rich and many are plant-based. You can find more of my recipes HERE.

In April 2019 I had been honoured to receive the The Helderleigh Foundation Food & Nutrition Award. You can read my journey interview on their webpage. [siteorigin_widget class=”WP_Widget_Media_Image”][/siteorigin_widget] You can read more of my notes on nutrition HERE.
