Welcome to Jimi’z Café, a place for simple recipe ideas for the hungry, vegan and gluten free jazz musician!
Well actually, a place for all people with taste buds who enjoy eating healthy food and caring for our beautiful planet in general… And I’ll make a point of pairing each recipe with some of my favourite jazz music for you to discover and enjoy whilst cooking. 🙂
So, let’s dive in! Here’s our first one: a tasty vegan broccoli salad accompanied by master pianist Teddy Wilson’s on “Fools Rush In.”
