Pachamama’s Beautiful Food ~ Cooking with the Elements

Margaret Gilfoyle trained and received initiations from indigenous healers of Peru, Brazil and Ecuador during the last decade - her first introduction to the presence of PACHAMAMA, Mother Earth to the Quechuan speaking people of South America. “Their traditions and beliefs in the Feminine Spirit which lived within the Earth itself rang true and deep within me.”

Pachamama and the Creator offer their gifts freely and abundantly within the intricate, infinitely beautiful web of life. In gratefulness of receiving these, we can learn more fully the joy of giving reciprocally what we have to offer in return. We honor Pachamama as we assist nature and people in respectful, sustainable ways. Cooking with love and the intention of bringing energy of peaceful joy as meals are prepared makes even the simplest cuisine and dishes very special to friends and family sitting down at your table, and assists the Earth's energy to resonate with more love, your love.

Garden love. Community garden plot butternut and delicata squash honored on our family table. Roasted with olive oil and maple syrup, salt and freshly ground pepper, garnished with smoked paprika pan roasted pepitas and slivered dates. Eating food harvested back in early October after tending all season is a special joy. Served steamed baby carrots, two varieties snap peas and golden beets from this year’s garden too. So grateful to the earth and garden. . . #pachamamasbeautifulfood #gardening #organicgardening #communitygarden #eatlocal #gardentotable #slowfood #ediblecommunities #gardenlove #grateful #squash #roasted #harvest #coloradolife

Gratitude is ... all the loving and inspirational, supportive and wild souls I’ve known in this life - in my chef life - who nudged, encouraged or outright pushed me along the way. To succeed for me was ultimately about earning a living to raise my son after being widowed at 27. Luckily my soul guided me to do so in such a way that was both rewarding and foolhardy, difficult and grueling, and creatively limitless - cooking professionally in restaurant kitchens. This past year my dream of gathering some favorite recipes together in book form was a kind of culmination of those days. It was a good project for this year, a perfect milestone in the first year past my sixth decade on the planet. And I am grateful I pushed myself, for hours and hours and hours of joyful planning, writing, reminiscing, designing layout, testing decades of recipes, and ultimately indie publishing my book, completed from beginning to end and now, into the beyond. If you’re looking to add a new addition to your kitchen, or a loved ones home, or housewarming, wedding gift or for the Colorado lifestyle junkie - bursting with full color photographs, poetry, stories and 77 gluten free recipes - consider buying Pachamama’s Beautiful Food and supporting a self published author, who has lovingly tested every crowd proven recipe and injected all the love possible into these pages. Purchase link in profile, or, to save me the ever growing processing fees, message me you’d like to pay with cash or check and I’ll send you my mailing address. Blessings and Love to you all, as we all pursue our dreams! . . #smallbusiness #smallbusinesssaturday #indieauthor #coloradoauthor #glutenfreechef #coloradolife #foodmemoir #rustickitchen #glutenfree #gratefulforallthememories #cookbook #supportlocal #supportlocalbusiness #cheflife #alifewelllived #ediblecommunities #iacp #pachamamasbeautifulfood #wcrwomenchefs
