Hi there! I'm Megan. I've been helping people get healthy and delicious food on the table since 2018. In college I barely knew how to boil water, and now I can whip up just about anything (including homemade crackers, tortillas, bread, sauces, salad dressings, and more) from scratch with no trouble.
I started this blog to provide help people see the power of real food. Simple, delicious, and nourishing food.
And shortly after I started this blog, I started a health journey that opened my eyes to an even deeper level of awareness of food and how to nourish our bodies in the best way possible.
I'm not only motivated to feed my family the healthiest food possible, but I'm also on a mission to heal my Hashimoto's and help empower others on their health journey to view food as medicine.
I know every body works differently, but I'm here to share what I've learned on my autoimmune health journey, as well as on the journey in the kitchen. I've learned how to trust my intuition with food and cooking, when I used to be terrified to stray away from the recipe.
I'm a firm believer that food doesn't have to be complicated to be delicious.
Here at Scratch To Basics, you'll find simple recipes, nourishing ingredients, and food packed with flavor. Healthy food should taste good, and it doesn't need to take all day to get it ready.
Here are a few topics you'll read about on STB:
- Meal Planning - Save time, stress, and money when you make a meal plan. Grab my free templates here.
- Scratch recipes from my kitchen to yours. We are intentional with the food we eat. We read the labels (on the BACK of the container) and try hard to avoid the junk in heavily processed food.
- Clean Beauty w/ Beautycounter - While working on healing the root cause of my autoimmune disease, I've learned how to pick companies that I can trust. I've chosen to partner with Beautycounter on their mission to get safer skincare into the hands of everyone. Learn more about my skincare routine here.
- Product Reviews - Whether it's reviewing a new meat box delivery company, an online grocery store, my favorite meal kits, or produce box subscription companies, I've got you covered. I try these products and share my experience with you so you can make the best possible choices for your family.
- Inspiring healthy living around the world through plant powders in capsules and gummies. My entire family takes Juice Plus+, and I 100% believe yours should too.
