For me, cooking has always been a bit of a drag. I used to see cooking as exhausting and not worth my time. Of course, as a younger, less food focused individual, food was nothing more than what I ate to fill my stomach. As I grew older I realized this would not work for me in the long run, so I decided to make changes to my diet. I started to cut inflammatory foods, eat higher protein, have higher quality fats, and even eat more red meat. I noticed that my health improved, my time in the gym became more effective, and I made better improvements to my digestion and mental clarity. But something was off. I found myself craving foods I couldn't have. I missed pizza, lasagna, donuts, pancakes and many of my other favorite foods. So I thought, there must be another option. Enter Make Your Meals Epic.
