It’s been a while, but those who have followed me for a while know a bit about who I am. To those who have just begun, welcome, and thank you for allowing me to be in your feed. Let me share a little of who I am. I am currently enrolled in the grad programs at School of Professional Studies, studying

I’m Ria, the passionate founder and innovative chef behind Good Food Good Living. My culinary journey began long before I could even reach the kitchen countertop, rooted in the rich tapestry of flavors and traditions woven by my grandparents. One of the greatest gifts they passed down to me is the art of cooking with the Earth’s freshest and finest ingredients, instilling a deep appreciation for the seasons and their bounty. Food has become my canvas for self-expression, a vibrant medium through which I honor and share the rich tapestry of my culture.

I profoundly believe in the significance of balance, not just on the plate, but in life itself. Just as some see a glass as half-empty and others view it as half-full, I always say, “I love to see all of my plates empty.” This sentiment reflects my conviction that food possesses an extraordinary ability to connect and unite people, transcending boundaries and sparking joy. This philosophy ignited my vision to evolve my business from a simple catering service into a vibrant, eco-friendly, and sustainable culinary haven.

Good Food Good Living is not merely about satisfying appetites; it is about cultivating a sense of community and well-being through the delightful world of food. Every dish is crafted with intention, aiming to nourish both the body and soul, while fostering connections and celebrating the joy of shared meals.

Snapped, sizzled, and stirred — these asparagus scramble eggs are my power-packed morning hug on a plate. Fresh, green, and glowing with goodness — who says breakfast can’t feel like a victory? Recipe below

Asparagus Scrambled Eggs
ingredients
1 1/3 cups Asparagus - about 16 stalks
3 Tbsp Water
Cooking spray
2/3 cup egg🥚 -whites
herbs - To taste
1 1/2 tsps Olive Oil
3 Olives
2 Tbsp Low-fat Cheddar Cheese
1 Apple

Instructions for a Delicious Asparagus Omelette

First things first: trim off the tough stem ends of your fresh asparagus. Give them a quick steam in a pot of water for just 1 to 2 minutes until they’re slightly tender. Once done, slice the asparagus into delightful one-inch pieces and set them aside. Don’t forget to save that flavorful leftover water!

Next up, whisk together your egg whites, a pinch of seasoning, and a splash of olive oil, incorporating that reserved asparagus water for an extra layer of taste. Once mixed, pour this vibrant egg concoction into a nine-inch glass pie plate that you've spritzed with a bit of olive oil.

Now for the fun part! Toss in some olives for a burst of flavor. Cover it all with another nine-inch glass pie dish and pop it into the microwave on high for about 1 to 1 ½ minutes.

When the time’s up, carefully flip your creation by inverting it into the other pie plate. And voilà! You’re on your way to a deliciously unique dish. Enjoy!

✈️😛 Passport? Check. Appetite? DOUBLE CHECK.

Caught this snap before hopping on my British Airways ride to flavor town (aka the UK). Not just traveling—I was on a mission to eat my way through Brighton, London, and every delicious moment in between.

🍽️ From beet tartare that made my taste buds sing to elderflower croissants at the airport (yes, I started early), every bite came with a story, a vibe, and sometimes a happy dance 💃🏽.

Next time? I’m getting my hands dirty—hello cooking classes, pop-up dinners, and edible adventures. Because why just eat the dish when you can be part of the recipe? 😋

Watching this picture still takes my breath away—because it was just three weeks ago that I boarded this flight and leapt headfirst into London’s bold, brilliant culinary scene.

Next time? I’m rolling up my sleeves. Cooking classes, pop-ups, edible adventures—I’m ready to be part of the recipe 😋

Let the good food and good vibes roll!

Movie night derails from my usual food-themed picks… and landed me on the racetrack. 🏎️🎬

Just watched F1, the new racing drama starring Brad Pitt, and it left me breathless—for reasons I didn’t expect. This film isn’t just about speed. It’s about memory, loss, and the long road to redemption. It even stirred up some powerful feelings I hadn’t touched since the tragic loss of Ayrton Senna in 1994.

It’s not perfect, but it’s real. And for once, Pitt surprised me.

Please read my full review and see why this film inspired me to put pen to paper again after years away from the critic’s seat. 💭✍️

Swapped pasta for pistons this movie night. 🍝➡️🏎️
Just watched F1—a film that crashes into emotion, memory, and adrenaline with every turn. Brad Pitt brings the heat, but it’s the echoes of real-life tragedy and redemption that truly hit home. Full review up now—link in bio.

💔 Saying goodbye to a Brighton treasure 💔

On June 13, I had the chance to visit Smorl’s Houmous Deli at the Brighton Open Market. I sat at one of their rustic tables, savored the most vibrant quinoa salad, dipped into their legendary hummus, and shared a tender moment with Sarah, who lovingly told me the café would be closing soon.

I didn’t realize “soon” meant this Saturday, June 28.

Smorl’s isn’t just a café—it’s a slice of soul served with garlic, sesame, and heart. Sarah’s passion for food, community, and independence was on full display during my visit, and I’ll always hold it close.

Swipe through to see:

To Sarah and the Smorl’s family: thank you for the flavors, the
warmth, and the legacy. You’ve fed us in every sense of the word.

If you’re in Brighton, stop by before June 28 to give Smorl’s the sendoff it deserves. And if you can’t, find their houmous in local shops across Brighton & Hove—it’s a jar of love.

From the bustling streets of London to the majestic mountains of Colorado comes an exciting new cookbook from , The Shed. I recently embarked on my culinary journey with the first dish from this collection, putting my twist on this week’s . I decided to prepare a vibrant Beetroot Tart, but I made some modifications to suit our family’s needs. Given our lactose intolerance, I omitted the creamy goat cheese, allowing the beets' earthy flavors to shine. Additionally, I reduced the sugar to half the recommended amount, as I prefer dishes that aren’t overly sweet. Which I believe is that the beets will release their natural sugars.

What truly amazed me, though, was how delightful the tart was. In a surprising turn of events, my eldest son—typically averse to vegetables—gobbled down two generous slices. It brought me such joy to see him enjoy this dish! I’m genuinely grateful for the wonderful evening we shared on Saturday, June 14, filled with laughter and good food. .
