PURA VIDA MOMS RECIPES

The only thing I love as much food? Travel.

Luckily, I can replicate my cravings at home even when I can’t travel.

I’ve traveled the world and come back with some of my favorite cravings (and perfected the recipes)- from Bombay to Helsinki, San Jose to Mexico City.

This page was created to celebrate and share foods of all kinds.
