Finally!

Thank you to all my Friends and Fans that encouraged me to start a blog. It will be an adventure to see where it may lead. As some of you know, cooking could be a challenge in my home. Every day I have the dillemma of what to make for consumption. I am Gluten Intolerant, very hard for a Chef like myself, though I never do without the foods that I love. My Daughter, Mary, is Vegetarian, borderline Vegan. My Husband, Duane is from North Dakota. A meal must include some sort of Meat and a Starch, and he could care less about the Vegetables. My Sons, Adam and Mitch are easy going (when it comes to food) and will eat anything I make them....especially dessert.
Life is hectic. It is my opinion that everyone deserves at least one great meal a day, no matter what your dietary restrictions are. (Three would be ideal, but let's start off slow) Here on my Blog, Cooking with Johnna, it will be my goal to teach simple tricks and techniques on just how to do that. As well as post some of my recipes and pictures.  I will share with you where I buy my products,which ones are my favorites and why, as well as where you can find them.
The first few blogs that I will be posting are focused on requests from friends and loved ones that have asked me questions regarding certain food items, or for recipes.
I look forward to this adventure with great anticipation....Lets Go!
