Hi, I’m Justeen Flynn, and I’m passionate about bringing the vibrant flavors and health benefits of the Mediterranean diet to readers everywhere. I grew up in a small coastal village in Southern Italy, where my love for Mediterranean cuisine began. Surrounded by olive groves and the sea, I spent countless hours in my grandmother’s kitchen, learning the secrets of fresh, local cooking. After studying Nutrition and Culinary Arts, I traveled across the Mediterranean, from Morocco to Greece, deepening my knowledge of the diverse culinary traditions. I gathered recipes and stories from local chefs and home cooks, all of which inspire my books. My goal is to share not just recipes but a way of life that emphasizes balance, community, and a connection to nature. I also host cooking classes and workshops to spread the joy of Mediterranean cooking. When I’m not writing or cooking, I love gardening, practicing yoga, and exploring new culinary trends. I live in a charming villa by the sea, where I continue to write, cook, and inspire others to embrace the Mediterranean lifestyle. Join me on this culinary journey and discover the joys of eating well, living well, and savoring every moment.
