Hi, I’m Maya!
More About MeWelcome to Wholesome Yum! I’ve been creating easy, healthy recipes using whole, real food for over a decade — all with 10 ingredients or less, and no refined sugar. I’m excited to share them with you and so glad you’re here!
I also wrote a few cookbooks (including a USA Today Best Seller), created the Wholesome Yum app (for my recipes, custom meal plans, grocery lists, and macro tracking), and developed clean, zero sugar ingredients at Wholesome Yum Foods.
