Heirloom recipes withstand the test of time, being handed down from one generation to another. These recipes bring so much good good into our lives and feed our souls, reminding us of times when we lived a life that was carefree. These recipes can't be credited to one specific author because they have been shared between generations, from one family member to another. They’ve been vetted, adapted, tested, and finalized before being passed from one person to another. Whether it be by a great-grandmother, grandmother, mother, aunt, or even a friend, these recipes have been refined and doctored to become a masterpiece of the person's kitchen that they now reside in.
Nostalgic recipes carry a value for other reasons than points that add up on a health log. Occasional indulgence in our favorite things, like enjoying foods that make us feel good, stimulate different parts of our brain. They activate points along the neuronal network to form a connection and power brain function. We at Roop Living believe that they're an important part of maintaining a balanced life and plan present you with recipes from time to time to serve that purpose.
