On this episode of Marti’s Music Kitchen, the Fun Music and Food Podcast, where anything can happen! Today’s guest, Dustin Hunley, is an accomplished jazz pianist who has been a music educator for over 16 years. He is also a fabulous vocalist, director, composer, arranger, and an absolute whiz in the kitchen! When Dustin found out his young son had Celiac disease and could be harmed by eating gluten, he was forced to change his cooking style to accommodate. Dustin is preparing a delicious Lamb and Sweet Potato Curried Shepherd’s Pie, which is of course, gluten free, and perfect for the cooler Fall weather. To help ward off the chill as you dine by the fireplace, he’ll also create a smoky MangoRita. As a parent with high school age twins, and a busy performing schedule, how does eating healthy and staying fit keep him going? How does he fuel-up for endurance running? Was it a love for cooking that helped him in the with the band, “Ants in the Kitchen?” Join me in the kitchen and let’s find out!Lamb and Sweet Potato Curried Shepherd’s Pie2 lbs.
