Delish D'Lites
http://delishdlites.com/
My blog features delicious, healthy & family friendly meal options on a weekly basis. I’ve been passionate about cooking since the age of eleven, when I got my first crack at cooking family dinners. Born and raised in a Puerto Rican family, food has always been a central theme in my life, and making good food that makes people happy is what it’s all about for me. I hope I can inspire you to tackle your culinary fears and unleash your inner chef in the kitchen!
All my recipes are inspired by my love of travel, and trying new cuisine and flavors.
