Serve corn on the cob with butter, chili powder, cheese, and lime juice. I love the corn on the cob. When we go to our local farmer’s markets, it’s one of the things I look forward to. While we wait in line, we think about what toppings to put on the corn that is piping […]

A wholesome mix of vegetables and tender chicken simmered in a lemony broth. This is pure comfort in a cup! The weather has been absolutely gorgeous in the Bay Area. We have had temperatures of 70 degrees. I can now run in shorts and go for long walks wearing flip-flops. Even in perfect weather, I […]

A delicious, healthy, low-carb alternative to tacos! Packed with flavor and protein, this recipe is sure to please. After making the black bean tacos with quinoa two weeks ago, I was in desperate need of another taco fix. With our Cabo trip in just four weeks, I needed a healthier option. These lettuce wraps were the perfect […]

This takeout favorite can be easily made at home, and it tastes better than the original! You’ve probably been reading Damn Delicious for a while now and know that I enjoy recreating popular Asian dishes at home. Instead of the sodium and msg that restaurants use, you can save a lot of calories and know […]

The copycat recipe you can make at home in under 20 minutes. It tastes even better than restaurant versions! Have you tried California Pizza Kitchen’s Kung Pao Spaghetti before?

This is a super-easy, no-fuss recipe that tastes 100 more delicious than the restaurant version! Even in the 100-degree weather, I need a bowl of soup, especially if it is my favorite Olive Garden soup. This is a copycat version of Olive Garden’s pasta and beans soup, Pasta e Fagioli. It’s so simple to make […]

This baked version is half the calories and has been lightened up. It tastes even better than the original! I enjoy experimenting with “lightened up” recipes. It’s a great way to save calories, and I love it if the recipe tastes even half as good as the original. This general Tso chicken is not a […]

This is only 1 of the 115 recipes in my Meal Prep Cookbook, which will be available on February 5th. Yes, all 115 recipes have nutritional information! This is my favorite recipe from the book. I don’t know why. I love the book and all its recipes – which I do! But I make this recipe at […]

I’m not the only one. Since my wedding diet was abandoned months ago, I doubt that I will be able to follow a summer diet. You can use zucchini noodles instead of the carb-laden pasta. The taste and flavor will not be affected. Really. It’s low-carb goodness, I tell you! We have buttery, garlicky zucchini […]
