I was inspired to create this cookbook of delicious foods made healthier during my recovery from cancer. I have been a registered nurse for over thirty-two years, and I am a certified health coach.

During my experience as a nurse and doing some personal research on food and nutrition, I saw a need for more nutritious ingredients in our foods with less refined sugar, fat, and chemicals. Every bite of food we take either feeds disease or fights it.

However, I come from a family of bakers and good cooks. I like delicious food. So I have compiled some of my favorite recipes and, with a few change of ingredients, made them healthier!

I have a list of healthier alternatives inside. I hope this will help many others to ease the confusion and frustration of healthier cooking. Enjoy!
