Hi, I’m Amanda.
In 2013, I quit my corporate job to pursue my true calling: creating delicious recipes for the home cook. This website is where I share those recipes and other inspired moments from my own home.
I quit my corporate job to attend San Francisco Cooking School, ultimately landing in the Williams-Sonoma Test Kitchen. Since then, my work has been featured in Better Homes and Gardens, Goop, Food & Wine, Food52, Sunset, and on Cherry Bombe Radio, as well as the Williams-Sonoma YouTube channel. In April 2020, I published my first solo cookbook, Simple, Beautiful Food, where I compiled some of my favorite recipes from over the years. And soon I’ll be opening the doors to my first restaurant: a fast-casual concept called Radish—in West Nashville.
For more inspiration, be sure to tune into my weekly Instagram Fridge Foraging, where I help home cooks make the most out of their own kitchens.
I currently live inNashville, TN with my husband Luke, two daughters, and dog, Chumley.
