ABOUT

Welcome to Food Metamorphosis, a food blog that features easy weeknight recipes, delicious sides, and a lot of comfort food recipes. Let me start by sharing what was the original name I wanted for the blog. It was going to be named “Pas Mal” which is french for not bad but the name was taken.

So, one day My “small but hungry, devilishly handsome” son and I were walking to the library and talking about the book we just recently had read, The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. My son was talking about how food goes through a metamorphosis while cooking.

Then he came up with the brilliant idea that I should name the blog Food Metamorphosis!

This blog was created in 2021 right at the heart of the pandemic. I felt the need to share all the delicious meals I was creating. Meals that can be fast and easy enough to make in a pinch without sacrificing taste.

I am Puerto Rican and like 99.9% of Caribbean people I have an unhealthy obsession with plantains. I love eating fried plantains and anything fried. In this blog, you will find a lot of Puerto Rican, Caribbean, and Latino recipes that I grew up eating. But you will also find recipes from all over the world that I’ve tasted and tried.

I have always been a foodie. I must confess that as a 6 year old, everything I made with playdoh had to be in the shape of food. Still today all I want to do is shape and create amazing tasty food.

I don’t follow specific diets or concentrate on ultra healthy recipes. So any healthy recipe you find here is truly tasty.

I hope I can inspire you to try out different recipes and see that anyone can cook a great meal. I will help you create those recipes. If you want me to make a recipe let me know in the comments. I will read through them and try to make them.

Thank you for being here and while you are at it you might want to take a peek at these:
