Vegan Chef Charmaine Daniels

Vegan Chef Charmaine Daniels having fun in the kitchen.Havin’ Fun in the Kitch-Un!

Vegan chef Charmaine Daniels and I had a great time tooling around the kitchen last Wednesday. Thanks to Jim & Donna for providing a FABULOUS location for this shoot. Bright, airy, scenic, clean. Great specs for a food shoot.

I love photographing food, Charmaine loves to cook, and we both love to eat good, tasty, colorful food–and it just so happens to be super healthy and vegan. Just look at her. She’s fit and gorgeous!

Be watching for more photos as she whips up a super fresh and tasty tabbouleh/tabouli…(However it’s spelled…I found about 9 thousand different spellings on Google…)

A few of the ingredients.

Ingredients-mint, lemon, tomato, parsley, cucumber.Check out the size of this knife.

Parsley & KnifeChoppin’ up fresh parsley, green onion and mint. The aromas were wonderful. Especially the mint.

By the way, I love how the green onion reflects off the knife in the middle photo. So shiny…

Adding the cucumbers, fresh lemon juice and bulgur wheat (bulgur was soaked in water, then drained).

Putting the Tabbouleh togetherDrizzling some delicious extra-virgin olive oil into the mix.

Then it was out to the balcony for a lovely alfresco portrait.

The wind was mighty and blowing her hair all over the place, but we managed to get some nice shots. I do love the spontaneous look of this portrait.Charmaine dining alfrescoThanks for joining me on this food journey. Hope you enjoyed it. Until next time….
