By Ambra Torelli
Sometimes the best recipes come out just like this. You match a few ingredients that inspire you and happen to create a 5 star dish. A case of persimmons just picked up from the tree, a fruit stand selling carobs… I connected the dots, and something delicious was born! 
Remember, my philosophy for success on eating clean is not feeling deprived. Just focus on the whole foods, on what is actually good for your body, bring out your creativity and start cooking.
