Welcome to my blog. My name is Monica Bravo, yes that’s my real name. I am from a small town north of New Orleans called Covington, Louisiana. I now reside in New Orleans, aka the best city in the US, in my opinion. I graduated from LSU Medical School in New Orleans and achieved my dream of becoming a doctor. I am completing residency at LSU to become a Dermatologist.
I started this blog in 2013. I was only 19. I still feel 19 in my heart! I did not know much about cooking, but wanted to share recipes that were healthy, easy to make, and tasted delicious.

I do not follow a certain diet, although many of my recipes are gluten free. My goal is not to help people eat “perfect”, my goal is to get people in the kitchen. Going to farmer’s markets, and caring more about their bodies, their wellbeing, and their overall health.
I love to spend time with my family and friends, cook, dance, ski, paint, and travel.
How can I start a blog?
I wrote about this here in my post “3 steps to starting a blog“. It is actually super easy to do! I hope you start a blog and if you do share it with me! I’d love to get to know your story.
Find me on Twitter , on Instagram (where I post yummy food), Facebook, or Pinterest. If you have any questions at all, email me at bravoforpaleo @ gmail.com . My media kit is available by request.
