I've been interested in nutrition since I was very young. Being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 5 years old was a game changer. I've had to think about every little thing I eat from the very beginning. While most kids ate whatever they wanted, when they wanted, I was the 7-year-old at the birthday party scraping the icing off my cake because I knew what it would do to my blood sugars (and because my mom made me, ha).
Unlike most kids, I knew that food directly affected how I felt and acted. Combine that with a grandmother who could bake like no other (and passed that skill onto me), and I developed a love for turning otherwise indulgent, sugar-laden and not-so-good-for-you foods into healthier low-sugar meals, snacks and desserts.
My Low Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites are one of my favorite recipes I've ever created and we make them at least 3-4 times each month in our house. It's also one of the most viewed recipes ever on my website.
I'm currently working on some exclusive content for my email list that will be focused on air fryer resources and recipes.
