About Relatable Recipes

Hi there, I’m Amanda, creator and author of RelatableRecipes.com. I’m thrilled you have joined me on my food journey! As you browse my website, I hope you can relate to both my story and my recipes.

So often I hear people say that they do not have the time or energy to make a home-cooked meal every night. While I know everyone’s story is different, my hope is that my recipes make it a little easier, and a lot more fun, to bring home-cooked meals into your life.

Here at Relatable Recipes we understand that life is busy and juggling kids, work, and health is challenging. Cooking may be the last thing on your mind. We believe that healthy, fun, and delicious meals are easier to make than you might realize, and we hope to inspire you to take that journey with us!

About Amanda

Born in Florida, I moved to St. Louis at a young age. With family in both Missouri and Wisconsin, I often bounce between the two states, but I currently live in St. Louis with my husband, daughter, and two rambunctious pups. Classified as morbidly obese as a teenager (oh BMI), I worked hard to become healthy. Over the years, I lost and maintained a 100-pound weight loss through both exercise and healthy eating. Through that journey, I discovered a love of cooking. Creating new recipes, learning new techniques in the kitchen, and preparing weekly meal-plans became an enjoyable hobby. This blog has been years in the making and I’m so happy to share my cooking world with you!

Maine Honeymoon

When I’m not cooking, I’m playing with my new baby girl, walking our dogs, playing in the garden, and dreaming about future travel destinations.
