The Kitchen - Show Me What Cha Workin’ With

Ever wonder what’s in other peoples’ kitchens? I’ve seen quite a number in my time and though a few were somewhat similar, I’ve never seen two that were exactly alike. They come in so many different sizes and styles, from huge and lavishly designed to small and modestly equipped. But there is one thing I believe all kitchens have in common.

Brussels Sprouts - diva:flava-Style!

Growing up as a child I was pretty much an equal opportunity eater. Just as today, there were very few foods, especially vegetables, that I did not like — EXCEPT Brussels sprouts.

Welcome to diva:flava.style!

    Low carb recipes are the primary emphasis of this site. Deliciously healthy recipes made from fresh whole foods (organic is best), clean carbs, lean protein and good fats. Low glycemic index cooking that helps slim the waistline, tease the senses and delight the palate. Alas, I am an imperfect being who happens to stray on occasion, so I will post the odd "splurge" recipe from time to time.

    diva:flava.style is also my creative outlet for sharing my experiences of healthy living, beauty, fitness and all things delicious.
