Hey There! I’m Lisa

If you like to eat, I already like you. I grew up in a small town in northern Minnesota and have always loved cooking and baking with my mom. In college, I enjoyed baking all sorts of cupcakes and cakes, mostly for my nieces' birthdays.

You know what I love most about food? It holds so many memories. From staple meals from your childhood, to Saturday morning donut runs with your dad or grandpa, to the very first time you hosted a big gathering, food has a way of bringing people together and telling a story.

I love eating healthy and staying active, but I also really love brownies, fresh bread, fries, and ice cream - and let me tell you, YOU CAN ENJOY BOTH!

Now let's get to my cute little family. My husband, Pat, is the self-proclaimed grill master around here. Together we're raising our three hungry kiddos, two daughters and a son, who you can usually find gathered around the dinner table with us most nights of the week. "New Recipe Monday" is a real thing in our house, and some of our favorite memories are made together in the kitchen making messes, trying new recipes, and simply slowing down to be together.
