Hi, I’m Taryn!

I’m a longtime home cook, certified nutritionist in training and former(ish) restaurant critic for the Monterey County Weekly. Here you will find easy comfort food recipes with whole food ingredients, especially from the U.S. and my homeland South Africa.

At Cook & Crumbs, everything is designed to be both good and good for you. Read my story “From Africa to Maine, From Lyme Disease to Healthy” or contact me here.
