Tell us about yourself:
Hello everyone! If you are reading this, “thank you” for your support. I appreciate the positivity. I am Jaime from Corona, California. Food, fitness & trying to optimize heath is a big part of my daily routine. I started cooking when I was young. I have been an avid fan of the Food Network for years and found myself intrigued by food, the personalities, and the recipes shared on the various programs. Now as an adult, I believe everyone loves good tasting food so why not turn your favorite dishes into a healthier alternative, easy to make option. Simple, quick, Macro friendly meals is what I prefer to prepare and really enjoy cooking. Macro meals are designed to allow you to eat what you want without having to avoid your favorite foods. It’s all about portions and balancing your daily protein, fat and carb intake. Thank you once again for checking out my recipes. Enjoy.
