"No one makes an apple pie like my mother.” “No one makes a paella like my mother!” Almost everyone believes that their mother is the best cook under the heavens. I, too, think this about my mother’s cooking talent. Yet, my appreciation for her delicacies goes father. I’ve learned to be healthy, cherish my heritage, and love my family through her cooking.
To commence, my mother’s cooking has taught me to be healthy. In every meal she prepares, every section of the food pyramid is introduced to me. For instance, one dinner would consist of white rice, red beans, fresh meat, green salad, and crystal water. For dessert, she would bake a fruit pie or a low-fat cake topped with fresh fruits. My mother always encourages me to eat breakfast and eat healthy snacks. Such as an apple or pear. She has taught me the real meaning of health.
