Here at The Nourishing Gourmet, we want to meet the recipe needs of a wide variety of people. So you get recipes from those in a wide variety of stage so life, including college students, mothers, those cooking for two to those cooking for nine daily. Some of us live in the city, some of us live on farms, some of us live in the suburbs, and some of us live out of country. Our contributors eat a wide variety of ways including grain-free/paleo, some gluten-free/dairy-free, and some that just love food and eat plenty of nourishing food!
I love that we can share so much in common while still expressing different preferences and dietary needs. And we are all dedicated to bringing you quality recipes from our kitchens. Enjoy!
You can meet me, the owner, editor, author and writer of this blog, here.
Meet The Nourishing Gourmet team.

Madey: Blogger at Madey Edlin.
Hello everyone! My name is Madey Edlin, I am a 19 year old food blogger and photographer, living on a farm outside of Portland, Oregon. I was exposed to good olive oil at a young, and tender age, and have never been the same. I have a passion for cooking that has never died. Curiosity and books have taught me how to cook thus far.
Here are 5 things to know about me: I have a box full of vintage dishes that live in my bedroom. I am a full time college student. I wear Burkenstocks on weekdays, heels on weekends. I read cookbooks for pleasure. I wrote a cookbook last year, due out later this year
A note on my cooking style: I am highly influenced by Julia Child, Mark Bittman, Bill Granger, Chad Peterson, Michael Ruhnlman, and Ken Forkish. I like to lightly salt things as I cook, rather then all at once at the end, it helps develop flavor. Acid is the unnamed champion of cooking. As stated before, I am a firm believer in good olive oil, and butter, you can never ever have too much butter. I am not a vegetarian, vegan, nor am I gluten-free or dairy-free, but I do have a loving respect for healthy living. Under seasoning is a bigger problem then over seasoning. I am not a firm believer in measuring cups, unless I’m baking, then I become a little OCD about it.
April from Redemptive Homemaking
After graduating from James Madison University I spent six years in campus ministry, including a year in East Asia. As a result, my cooking has been greatly influenced by Chinese, Korean, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisine. You can bet that I fully indulged in many traditional, and unique, Asian dishes that year!/div>

Lindsey: Blogger at Life of Linz
Lindsey Proctor is a twenty-something foodie, with an emphasis on great tasting real food. She lives with her parents and sister on Hickory Cove Farm, a small, natural and sustainable farm in South-Central Pennsylvania where they raise Alpine and Nubian dairy goats, a flock of pastured laying hens and a few roosters, and a few beef steer. Her favorite place to be is out in the pasture with her goats, but she also enjoys spending time in the kitchen cooking, baking, preserving food, and cheese making. She also enjoys photography, music, and a really good cup of coffee, and blogging at The Life Of Linz. She views her life in the country as a great blessing and it is her firm belief that she has been placed there for a purpose; to help others get back to living and eating the way she think God intended us to – a simple, fresh, local, and seasonal way of life.
Anna: Blogger at Eastside Epicurean
Anna lives Buffalo, NY surrounded by a cityscape of both blight and hope. She receives inspiration from the next-door urban farm and loves nothing more than to spend a lazy summer Saturday perusing the lush stalls of a farmers market with her two lively children and husband. Cream and butter are two of her most adored ingredients.
She is devoted to sustainable food sourcing and to encouraging others to find the links between simple, beautiful food and thriving health. Some of her major influences include Alice Waters, Sally Fallon, and the More-With-Less cookbooks. She enjoys challenging herself with serving large gatherings, living with intentional restraint, and engaging her children in the creative world of food.
Above all, she values relationships and finds joy in bringing people together around the table.

Natalia: Blogger at An Appetite For Joy
Hello! My name is Natalia and I live in the “City in a Forest” (Atlanta, GA) with my husband and two children. I’ve been drawn to nutrition and natural healing since I was a young child, growing up in a Russian and Dutch home. I fondly remember my dad theatrically convincing me to love head cheese (with horseradish and lemon!) and learning to make herbal tinctures from my mom.
During my teens and early twenties, I strayed to more faddish health trends, but the color returned to my cheeks only when I came back to a time-honored way of eating. There is no greater joy than passing the gift of nourishment to my family and although we haven’t yet made full circle to the head cheese, the roots have been planted. 😉 A former health columnist and project engineer, I now teach Pilates & yoga and offer practical inspiration to others as they carve a path of good health… AnAppetiteForJoy.com
