I have always had a love and passion for all things food. I grew up in a food loving family with Italian roots and holidays surrounded by food and family.

I also had health issues myself and in my family - which inspired me to look at food towards a part of our health, healing, and prevention.

Eating healthy can mean so many different things to so many different people. There is no one right way to eat and one perfect healthy diet. Eating healthy is going to look differently for everyone based on their own needs, values, beliefs, and accessibility. To me, eating healthy is eating a variety of foods that are tasty and colorful and bring joy.

Whole grains are packed full of fiber! Baking has always played a special place in my heart and I love the idea of adding nutrition to recipes with simple swaps such as yogurt instead of sour cream, pumpkin or applesauce in place of oil, and whole grain flours in place of all purpose flour.

My goal is to share favorite recipes with a slight nutrition twist to boost the fiber, include healthy fats, lower sugar, and still taste hella amazing.

It is hard to choose just one! Here is a variety of them in no particular order and not together.

• Sweet Potatoes

• Chocolate

• Peanut Butter

• Butter Chicken

• Chicken Marsala

• Breakfast Tacos

• Anything pesto
