About Me

Gina @ Skinnytaste

I’m Gina Homolka, a mom of two girls residing on Long Island. I specialize in creating nutritious recipes that are loaded with flavor. From high-protein dishes to macro-friendly meals, anti-inflammatory delights, high-fiber options, gluten-free treats, and more, I cater to diverse dietary needs. I’m here to help, so leave a comment with any questions!

My Story

What originally began in 2008 as an idea to slim down some of my favorite recipes, Skinnytaste was born and has developed into a highly rewarding labor of love.

At Skinnytaste.com, you’ll find healthy dishes that don’t sacrifice any of the flavor.  My creations must be “tasty” because after all, this is the same food I cook on a daily basis for friends and family, and they are some of my toughest critics!

Food Philosophy

My food philosophy is to eat seasonal, whole foods. When you cook your own meals, you know you can feel good about what is going into your body.

Part of a healthy lifestyle is also exercising, weight training, focusing on good quality sleep and keeping stress to a low, when possible. I often count macros, and include nutritional info on all recipes.

I’m also a huge advocate of Weight Watchers because of their “everything in moderation” approach.

My Team

When I have nutrition and weight loss questions, I turn to Heather K. Jones and have teamed up with her to help answer nutritional questions. All my recipes here on Skinnytaste include nutritional info as well as Weight Watchers Points.

I’ve also teamed up with Danielle Hazard to help with meal plans and develop recipes, which are all re-tested by me.
