My favorite day of the year is Christmas, then Easter and my birthday… and THEN comes National Hamburger Day [belated, but we’re still allowed to celebrate]… YES! 🎉 I grew up in Northern Cali. There was a little burger franchise in SoCal I used to hear...
I’m ready for summer. But, my body? 😬 I’ve been feeling sluggish lately, so I’m kick-starting my body by eating a daily spring detox veggie bowl [w/my Dijon caper vinaigrette dressing]! Your body is designed to detox itself, but when you consume processed foods & sugar, [like...
Last week, I had an amazing opportunity to speak to two groups of high achievers… from my kitchen! 🎉 @compass Real Estate and The Christian Business Lunch [@macdonald.group] both wanted to know… What do I tell my clients to eat on a daily basis so they can increase...
I promise you this is your SAUCE FOR THE SUMMER! This Argentinean Chimichurri can be drizzled on steaks, chicken, tacos, grilled veggies and avocado toast [and so much more!]. When I make it, I usually double or triple the recipe as it makes everything I cook taste...

Here’s a sneak peek of what I’m making this weekend at @q13fox… My “Carb-Killing" 10-Minute Lunch! Why does it kill carbohydrate cravings? 'Cuz it is full of protein, fat & fiber [the trifecta of a full tummy]! During #quarantinelife, many of us are turning to carbs & alcohol...
In the last few weeks, I’ve let carbs be my “default food.” After all, they are sooo easy… all you have to do is open a bag! 🤷🏻♀️ I’ve decided to make a few changes. I have to cut the carbs. ✂ Lettuce wraps to the rescue....
It’s officially salad season, my friends! 🥗 The only problem… You have to run to the store every few days for lettuce, since it usually only lasts for about a week [even when you take great care of it]. Since lettuce can be a bit fragile, I...
I’m really trying to limit my supermarket trips to once every two weeks. I honestly can’t believe how much I miss going to the market. Produce is the most challenging item on my list to make last for two weeks. And, because I’ve been eating so...
