About & Policy

EAT WELL: EASY, DELICIOUS, HEALTHY RECIPES — ALL GLUTEN-FREE, MOST VEGETARIAN.

The Healthy Dish is a website about Healthy Living, Eating, and Recipes that won’t break your budget. It’s also about Margarita Persico’s daily life around food, ­wherever she is, usually in Boston, Mass., sometimes Costa Rica, Puerto Rico or New York.

The website carries posts and feature articles about the countless people she encounters during her adventures with food and life. But of outmost importance, it’s about encouraging healthy eating, living and environmental causes. The recipes are International, Healthy, Simple, Green, Most Vegan and Gluten-Free.

The life of Margarita Persico, The Healthy Dish founder, revolves around her work as a writer, food and volunteering. When Margarita, a journalist, is not interviewing, snooping around, talking to politicos, business people, local citizens, farmers, grocers and chefs, she’s usually writing, volunteering or cooking. And sometimes even exercising–spinning, yoga, hiking. One thing is for sure — she has a lot to write about.

The Healthy Dish stories are not only from Margarita’s kitchen lab, but also from other writers. The blog carries food and product reviews, fun posts as well as tips on health, safety in the kitchen and how to cook wholesome meals on a budget.
