My name is Lanie Fioretti and although I am not a classically trained chef or a degreed nutritionist, I have been studying food and nutrition voraciously since the early seventies.

I usually think of myself as an improvisational cook!

However, he’s also had longstanding, chronic problems with his knee, and tendonitis problems with his finger. …
Cucumber Salad With Avocado
