Hello there, my name is Emily and I am the photographer, food stylist, writer and content creator behind Emily’s Wholesome Kitchen. I am first and foremost a wife and mom to three children. My oldest is learning to cook and prepare foods for himself and others. Currently, we live in Eastern Virginia but we have lived previously in East Texas for 5 years. As you will see, several dishes on the site have a southwestern flare infused into them. Emily’s Wholesome Kitchen is based on the scripture 1 Corinthians 10:31- So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
Why did you create Emily’s Wholesome Kitchen?
I began this blog because I wanted to show others how to eat real food without it being complicated. I want people to understand the importance of real food to their overall health and well being. By taking an active part in preparing and cooking, you can see hands-on the benefits of a real food based lifestyle. I also want to share since I am gluten free this way of eating can be fun. When you are new to gluten free, it can be intimidating so I want to take the guess work out of it. This site gives me the opportunity to share that with you.
What can you find on Emily’s Wholesome Kitchen?
On the site you will find recipes that are all gluten free based. I have a variety of recipes-breakfast, snacks, main dishes and desserts that even the pickiest eater will enjoy (my son is one of my taste testers). These recipes are sure to be flavorful, delicious, wholesome and I hope will be some of your family favorites. Also, I will be sharing some of my favorite tips and recipes to living a more natural, greener lifestyle by way of the kitchen. My desire is that they can be of help to you on your health journey.
What are some of your favorite recipes?
Of course, I love them all! But some of my favorite recipes I recommend you to try are:
- Paleo Hamburger Casserole
- Creamy Bacon Ranch Stuffed Spaghetti Squash Bowls
