Meet Diane

You Found Your People.

Now Let's Find Your Recipes.

Hi, I’m Diane — a lifelong food lover, Weight Watchers Lifetime Member, and self-confessed kitchen experimenter based in sunny Southern California. I started My Curated Tastes to share the recipes I actually cook: healthyish, high-protein meals portioned for two, with plenty of WW-friendly options that never taste like “diet food.” Whether you’re cooking for a partner, scaling back, or just tired of recipes that serve eight, you’re in the right place.

Not sure where to start? I’ll help you find your path.

What Brings You Here Today?

Cooking for Two

Real meals, perfectly portioned.

No giant batches, no sad leftovers. Every recipe on this site is developed for two people — scaled right, full of flavor, and designed for the way you actually cook.

High-Protein Recipes

25–50g of protein, genuinely delicious.

Staying full isn’t about eating less — it’s about eating smarter. These recipes pack serious protein into every bite without sacrificing flavor or fun.

WW-Friendly Recipes

Real food. No diet food required.

As a WW Lifetime Member with 40 years of experience, I know exactly how to make food that’s on-plan AND something you’d actually want to eat. These recipes keep the points in check and the flavor turned all the way up.

The Sweet Spot

Many recipes here tick all three boxes at once: portioned for two, packed with protein, and WW-friendly. That’s the My Curated Tastes sweet spot — and it’s where a lot of readers love to start.

Try This First

High-Protein Waffles Made With Chicken

Chicken IN waffles — not chicken AND waffles. This recipe went viral for good reason: it’s crispy on the outside, tender inside, and made entirely from protein (no flour!). It checks all three pillars: cooking for two, high-protein, and WW-friendly. It’s the perfect introduction to what My Curated Tastes is all about.
