Hello, I’m Kristina!
As someone who has walked my own path towards wellness- including losing 75 pounds naturally and keeping it off for over 18 years- I understand the value of intentional eating and the power of getting in the kitchen and cooking with fresh, wholesome ingredients. Now my journey has taken a turn as I focus on midlife and lower-sugar recipes that helped reverse my pre-diabetes and help manage my autoimmune disease. I want to share these recipes and insights with you so that you can eat well and be your best self!
I have mainly Mediterranean inspired recipes such as Chicken and Seafood Paella and Spinach and Feta Ground Chicken Empanadas. You will also find a mix of recipes crafted from my Latina heritage such as my Whole30 Carne Asada Fries or my Crispy Baked Chicken Tacos . And I couldn’t start this blog without paying homage to other cultural backgrounds that I grew up with. My Ube Mochi Waffles are just an example of more delicious recipes to try. Some recipes will be lower in sugar and carbs and adaptable to all dietary needs. And yes- I believe in a little indulgence- it’s all about balance!
I hope my blog inspires you to reconnect with your wellness, one flavorful bite at a time.
