About the author – Jennifer Maloney
Hi, I’m Jennifer, and I’m cooking my way through the seasons from my home kitchen in beautiful Muskoka, Ontario, Canada.
I started Seasons and Suppers back in 2012 with the simple goal of collecting and sharing my favourite recipes. Each recipe I shared was me saying, “Here’s what I’ve cooked lately! ‘It was really good, and you might like it, too!” After all, who doesn’t need a little help in the What’s For Dinner department?
Over 1100 recipes later, that’s still my goal.
Beyond just sharing the recipes, though, I wanted Seasons and Suppers to be a place that people could trust. That’s why I have always thoroughly tested every recipe I share. I write the recipes with attention to detail to make sure everyone, at all levels of cooking experience, will have a stress-free, successful and delicious outcome!
I know I can’t always please everyone all the time, but I’ll never stop trying :)
Thanks for stopping by, and happy cooking! – Jennifer ([email protected])
A bit more about me …
I am a home cook, schooled by trial and error and 40+ years of getting dinner on the table. I spent many years cooking for my family, but now that I’m an empty-nester, I’m mostly cooking for two these days.
In those 40 years, I’ve learned a thing or two …
- I’ve learned what works and what doesn’t, and I’ll happily share that knowledge to help others avoid repeating my mistakes!
- I’ve learned that time and ingredients are valuable, and nobody wants to waste either of them when it comes to cooking at home. That’s why I only share tried and well-tested recipes with all the tips!
- I’ve learned that eating well doesn’t have to involve lots of time, money or fancy ingredients and that I can absolutely eat delicious food at home without breaking the bank or breaking a sweat (check out my collection of 30-minute meals!
I like to think I’ve cracked the code a bit over the years and figured out how to cook at home easily, simply, seasonally and above all, deliciously!
And yes … I also love to bake because baking therapy is definitely a thing. Whether homemade bread or a little something sweet now and then, there will always be room in my world for some home-baked goodness.
So, whether you’ve been cooking for 40 years too and are out of dinner ideas, or you are a beginner cook and are looking for some seasoned guidance as you learn, you’ll find all that here.
The food I love!
Is it enough to say delicious stuff? Yeah, probably not. Ok then, so I love to cook and eat simple, seasonal and delicious food.
I love to enjoy the best of every season, whether it’s Winter comfort food or Summer meals on the grill. I eat all the foods, except, of course, the ones I don’t like (looking at you, olives :).
I try to keep a healthy balance, indulging in some foods less often than others. I try to follow the Michael Pollan mantra: “Eat real food, not too much, mostly plants.” Truth be told, I struggle with the “mostly plants” part. It definitely doesn’t come naturally to me, but I’m working on it :) #FoodGoals
That said, I do believe that if I’m making food myself, in my own kitchen, from good and fresh ingredients, I’m already a good part of the way to eating well.
So you’ll find a bit of everything here – seasonal and healthy; hearty and comforting; sometimes a little bit sinful … but trying to find that healthy balance and always … real food, done delicious.
