Hello!

I’m Ana Frias and welcome to blog! I’m so glad you’re here.

I am a mother of two adult sons and wife to one, currently based in the Setubal Portugal, land of fresh foods, amazing seafood and sublime wine.  My husband and I recently moved to Portugal from Phoenix Arizona. I also lived in Sonora Mexico where I was born and raised.

Cooking, trying new ingredients, and experimenting in the kitchen excite me more than anything else. I grew up cooking with my mom, dad, sisters and brothers. What can I say? Cooking is in our blood! Sharing my passion for cooking and baking – and inspiring others in the kitchen – is my greatest passion.

I plan to share with you anything I find truly worthy of a place in the kitchen.  It may be an ingredient, a wine, a recipe – anything that enhances our escapades in the kitchen and makes our taste buds smile.

I also run a Mexican food blog where I share recipes from my native country. Muy Delish is my bread & butter and I welcome you to check it out!  

You can find me on InstagramYouTube, and Pinterest. You can also reach me directly at [email protected]. If you’d like to keep in touch.

Thank you for taking the time to visit this site and try my recipes! It means the world to me.

What recipes you’ll find on the blog

The recipe section is dedicated to providing protein-rich recipes that fuel your body and are also delicious. I’m working on creating a diverse collection of meats, eggs and hearty plant-based protein sources that cater to various preferences and dietary needs.

While protein is my primary focus, I also recognize the importance of a well-rounded menu. You’ll find a sprinkling of other delectable recipes on this site, providing a balanced and flavorful array of options. Whether you’re a carnivore, pescatarian, a vegetarian, or somewhere in between, I hope my site helps you find delicious, protein-packed dishes that resonate with your palate. So, roll up your sleeves, explore my recipes, and jump on a flavorful adventure that elevates your everyday meals to a new level.

Why do I eat a high protein diet? It supports muscle maintenance and growth, plus provides a variety of essential nutrients for overall health and well-being.

But it’s not just protein, I also eat lots of carbs and healthy fats! I don’t believe in restricting the foods you eat as long as they’re in moderation.
