Realistic food for a busy family.

That’s what this website and blog are all about.

You’ve found the place for all of my fresh family meals, easy recipes, cooking tips, meal planning, school lunch packing, and loads more. I’m best known for my school lunches, but I’ve got lots more too. We are a busy family of six so simple + healthy meals are what I’m all about.

This isn’t your typical food site - this is more of a personal blog with a lot of helpful stuff mixed in.

Yes, I do have some recipes that I hope you’ll like. And I have shared thousands of packed lunches over the years. But you’ll also find a lot of useful tips for a busy family, meal planning tips, kitchen shortcuts and hacks, and thoughts about life and parenting in general.

If you want to try out some of my favorite things, I’ve got a custom Amazon shopping page where you can find all of my top recommendations.
