Hi, I’m Janeva!
Welcome to my website. It’s here you will find a wide variety of comfort dishes, from entrees to desserts, that are quick to make and low on carbs. No matter how experienced a cook you might be, I want you to love the food you make and eat.
I think it’s important to practice what you preach, so here’s a little about me:
When my only son Samuel passed away over a decade ago, I struggled with it. Through that time of grief, I ate my feelings. I knew it wasn’t sustainable, and I knew I needed some help.
I participated in the Ideal Protein plan, and through it I created my first cookbook, Janeva’s Ideal Recipes - Phase 1, to help other members succeed with their own weight loss and enjoy the food they were eating in the process. Through my experience, I have found that the key to my own achievements with weight maintenance has been to follow a low carb diet–a lifestyle I truly know I can commit to without feeling I’ve compromised one of life’s most enjoyable and essential activities–eating!
I believe life is about indulging in the activities and company and food you love. But indulging and dieting sound like mortal enemies, don’t they? A total oxymoron. I don’t think they have to be. The key for me has been to create lower carb versions of the standard higher carb comfort foods we know and love. These recipes are quick and easy, full of variety, and big on taste.
I hope you feel excited to eat what you love every day. Thanks for joining me.
