Summary

My guest today is Bettina Campolucci Bordi

Bettina is a qualified vegan raw chef having trained at the Matthew Kenny Culinary Institute over in Los Angeles.

She was born with a passion for food and cooking she says has remained a constant pleasure in her life. Brought up by a Norwegian father and a Danish-Bulgarian mother Bettina’s food is inspired by the countries she’s lived in.

She’s worked in the catering industry for over a decade, has a wildly popular blog filled with fast, fresh, simple, vegan recipes, has amassed an army of followers and she’s just released her very first cook book Happy Food.

Ultimately Bettina’s philosophy on food is simple…she believes that food is meant to make you happy.

0:00.0	Hi, I'm Margie and welcome to the Desert Island Dishes podcast.
0:06.1	This is the podcast where every week I ask my guests to choose their seven Desert Island dishes.
0:12.4	These range from finding out about the dish that most reminds them of their childhood,
0:17.1	the best dish they've ever eaten, and of course, the last dish they would choose to eat
0:22.8	before being cast off to the Desert Island.
0:25.7	So you've got three important things to do today.
0:29.1	Subscribe, rate and review Desert Island dishes.
0:33.0	I know I'm always hanging on about it, but genuinely reading your lovely comments and getting the feedback that I'm getting just makes my day and just makes doing this such a joy.
0:44.2	Today's episode is with the wonderful Bettina and we talk everything from creative chill, what it's really like working in a restaurant.
0:53.9	And I think we had very similar
0:55.8	experiences, although I did actually have a source firm thrown at my head. I love Bettina's
