[ real people, real food ] – Chef Julie Frans

Posted on 30 September 2011

I’m a food guy, so photographing kitchens, chefs, and cooking themes are a real joy for me. There are very few things I won’t eat, and I appreciate it when someone shows me exciting ways to enjoy the things I should eat.

Julie Frans is a local chef here in San Diego. She runs Dining Details, Chickpeas, and a half dozen other cooking related ventures. The bulk of what she does now is teach, and she’s very good at it. Her ongoing mission is to promote healthy habits, local/seasonal ingredients, and food awareness.

If you aren’t much of a veggie person, Julie will show you how to truly enjoy them. She even makes eating broccoli for breakfast exciting, delicious, easy and fun. Don’t take my word for it. Try some of her recipes and see for yourself.

And no, she’s not a vegetarian, she’s just really smart and passionate about fun, delicious, sustainable and health-conscious foods.
