California Food

Many say our food in California Food is chef-driven, healthier and takes inspiration from the vast vegetables, fruit, and wine produced locally. We typically use leaner meats, and fresh seafood from the waters off the California Coast. Some are iconic classics and many reflect our sun, surf, and outdoor beach lifestyles.

There are dozens of California inspired recipes here like the original Cobb Salad from the Hollywood Brown Derby, Green Goddess Dressing from San Francisco, Burger Sauce (In-N-Out Burger Copycat), Homemade Granola, Green Smoothies, Avocado Salsa (Green Taco Sauce), Ranch Dressing, Frozen Bananas, and so much more.

Indulge in my California Coastal inspired recipes, these are just a few of the foods we love.
