7 Kickass Food Blogs That’ll Inspire You to Cook a Homemade Meal

This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at SLU chapter.

Social media is everyone’s favorite past time and so is eating. That is why food blogs and food related Instagrams are killing it in the social media game.

Next time you decide you want some good food porn or a perfect recipe to fit your cravings, why not go somewhere that you know will provide you with instructions to a fresh, but actually tastes good, feel good meal.

Here are some of the best food blogs I’ve found written by people looking to use quality ingredients to create real food to fuel your body:

Love and Lemons

This is my personal favorite. This is the perfect blog to allow you to enjoy seasonal, fresh, plant-based recipes. It gives the helpful option to put what season you’re cooking for, any diet restrictions (great for GF & vegan), or any ingredients you have in your kitchen that you want to use.

Stumbled upon this one with all the great clean eating recipes written by Registered Dietitian Miranda Hammer. Her blog focuses on nutrition, wellness and eating all around good tasting foods. You will want to get right in the kitchen after reading this one.

This 19-year-old London native, Izy, who is currently studying food and nutrition has her own blog and even her own cookbook. She loves to inspire people to create stylish, sweet, and savory recipes that can relate to anyone in the kitchen. Plus, her pictures are unreal.

Joy’s blog has won multiple awards for being the best baking blog out there and that is no surprise. Whether it is her weekly posts about Sunday’s, her random cocktail concoctions, or her baked goods that make you drool regularly, everything she makes includes real ingredients that will make you want to start baking versus buying.

John and Dana love creating recipes that exemplify “simple food, simply delicious”. They both share a passion for adapting recipes where necessary such as vegan or gluten free, but making those recipes taste just as good as the original. They have easy to follow recipes that will make you eat in instead of eating out.

Nutrition Stripped

This blog is perfect for basic wellness questions, simple recipes, and healthy living written by a dietician, which makes it one of your best options for real, factual based, nutrition advice. She believes that eating well is one of the keys to living a happier, healthier life. So, why not check it out and strip all the bogus fad diets and learn to eat to feel good?

Colleen is a lover of all things food. She is obsessed with succulents and any type of gardens whether inside or outside. She lives with an extreme passion for showing people how to make REAL food. She couldn't live without Taylor Swift, buffalo sauce, iced coffee, and her camera. She would love to be the next Adele on Instagram.
