Hi there, my name's Daniel, though you may know me from Weight Watcher's "Connect®" as @dhallakx7, aka "The Recipe Ninja". I'm constantly sharing new recipes and ingredient ideas for how to turn indulgent high point® meals into ultra low point® awesomeness, through encouraging you to use ingredient swaps to out-smart your food.
For those of you who don't know my story, I'll give you the Cliff notes version. I go more in-depth in the intros of the actual cookbooks. I am a 44 year old stay at home father for two special needs kids, 1 with autism, 1 with down syndrome. I had been overweight for most of my life and had been categorized as obese for the past 7 to 8 years,, until joining Weight Watchers® (now WW®) on December 1st, 2017. Modifying my meals through ingredient swaps and food hacks, allowed me to drop 53 pounds in 3.5 months without any exercise, and while eating amazing meals every single day. I love cooking, I love Connect® and I want to share what has worked for me with every single one of you. I don't do this for the money. I do this because I get sincere, genuine joy, out of being able to help people in-system. Hence... why I will ALWAYS offer a free digital download of any cookbook that I ever publish. I'm a firm believer in "put up or shut up." You're all free to download my cookbooks, no strings attached. I want to help.
