Underrated Instagram Accounts Every Foodie Should Follow
By this point, almost all of us already follow @foodintheair, @infatuation and @spoonuniversity (duh) on Instagram to satisfy our food obsession needs. Don’t get me wrong – these awesome accounts and other popular ones never ever fail to make my mouth water or add a new restaurant to my bucket list. But some other foodies out there are just as worthy.
We know you’re sneaking peeks at your insta during your internship or while lounging on the beach, so add these accounts with less than 10k followers to your feed. They won’t disappoint.

Cara’s blog and insta account (and super clever handle) serve as 24/7 healthy inspiration. But don’t worry, she throws in an awesome burger or slice of cake for good measure.

These patriotic peanut butter cookie pops are too easy not to make (Link in bio ?: @bakersroyale_naomi) #Delish #DamnThatsDelish #Merica A photo posted by Delish (@delishdotcom) on Jun 30, 2015 at 11:18am PDT

@Gofindalice
[Los Angeles | @sqirlla] #Sqirl’s signature #sorrelpestobowl is definitely one of my favorite dishes in LA. If you’ve never fried it, you’ve got to! Sorrel pesto, Kukuho Rose brown rice, preserved Meyer lemon, lacto fermented hot sauce, black radish, French sheep feta and a perfectly topped poached egg with an added sausage patty ?? #sqirlla A photo posted by Go Find Alice (@gofindalice) on Jun 30, 2015 at 8:17am PDT
With mostly pics from Los Angeles restaurants, Alice has you wishing you lived in the golden state.

Some lovely morning #yolkporn. A photo posted by Megan Watson (@mwatsonnyc) on Jun 30, 2015 at 9:38am PDT
Megan’s account constantly has me wanting to eat whatever she’s eating, whether it’s a sandwich at NYC’s new bacon, egg, and cheese spot, BEC, or the classic Milk Bar cereal milk.

When someone can make food porn out of healthy stuff, you know they’re good. This account is mostly colorful healthy dishes, but you’ll still get your ice cream and cookie fixes.

#hackyourlunch Day 4: Proof that good things come from happy accidents. This morning I forgot to pack the hard-boiled eggs I meant to put in this salad sandwich (recipe in my profile). @rochellebilow’s leftover vegan pate from an earlier #lunchaldesko came to the rescue, and my sandwich and I are very happy. + A bit of news: @rochellebilow and I will be on @wnycradio’s The Leonard Lopate Show tomorrow to talk all things lunch! We’ll be on at noon, 93.9 FM. A photo posted by Christina Chaey (@seechaey) on Jun 25, 2015 at 10:06am PDT
I don’t know how someone can make salads and sandwiches look so damn good, but Christina has that skill down pat.

We all need some healthy food inspiration once in a while, and this NYC model proves that even models can be foodies too.

After a few to many celebrations after finishing uni all I was craving this morning was a nourishing green smoothie. (Rugged up in my warmest jumper of course because it’s a miserable cold raining day here in Brisbane) ✌️❄️☔️ A photo posted by Shelley Judge (@shelleysgoodeats) on Jun 28, 2015 at 4:55pm PDT
Shelley makes acai bowls and avo toast look like artwork, inspiring you to fit in some healthy meals.

Suzanne’s bio says she’s a mom, wife, chef, and co-owner of multiple restaurants. And she packs her kids lunches that are 10x better than mine.
