..Quotes

"I feed my throat like a violin, like an instrument"

"This is not a diet - it's a lifestyle."

"It's like, the other guy may have peanut butter and jelly, but you're the one with the chocolate chip cookies. There's a balance there."

"On some of my darkest days, Lucifer's the one who comes and gives me an ice cream."

"I'm a musician first, a food-lover second, a dirty mouth with feet, and a girl last time I checked."

"The key for me is food. Anything you put in is going to have an effect. I mean, think about how much we invest in fashion, in what we put outside the body: The money! The energy! But we tend to ignore what's going in."


..Tori's favortie recipe

Chef Duncan Pickford shares his recipe for his client's preferred healthy dinner:

Baked Wrapped Tilapia (serves 4)
Four 4-oz fillets of fresh tilapia (or other firm-fleshed whitefish)
4 large banana leaves (or unbleached parchment paper)

For the topping:
1-inch cube fresh gingerroot, finely chopped or grated
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped or grated
2 scallions (green part only), finely chopped Fresh chile to taste (approximately two bird's eye chiles)
1 cup finely chopped cilantro
2 Tbsp grapeseed or safflower oil
Dash toasted sesame oil
Dash soy sauce
Dash fish sauce
4 tsp dark maple syrup
Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Combine the topping ingredients in a bowl. Place a fillet on each of the banana leaves and divide the topping evenly among them, spreading it over the top. Fold the banana leaves over to form a packet around each fillet and seal the edge of each packet with a small piece of aluminum foil, crimping it tightly. Place on a baking sheet and bake 25 to 30 minutes. Enjoy!
