Yesterday spent the day prepping for school to go back tomorrow! This slice is a winner with the entire family. I have to make another batch today as it won't last the week. Thank you for the endless hours you have spent creating recipes for parents like me who have no idea where to start. New follower and loving all your content 👏

Purchased your lunchbox book a couple of days ago and tried out the zucchini slice today. My boys love it and are happy to take it for school lunches! Already got a shopping list ready to make more recipes this week. Thank you!

We added cocoa to ours and omg 😍 everything we made from your ebook has been a hit. I even have to keep myself and hubby out of the stash! Got the kids (6 & 7) to help make them and it was so much fun!!

Hi Kelsie, I only discovered your page this week & bought your GF Nut Free cook book. Just wanted to say thank you & so far I've made the Sprinkle Cookies & the Mini Quesadillas. I'm coeliac, my son is gluten intolerant & my daughter is super fussy!! So far they have actually loved & eaten what I've made. The tips on storage are so helpful. Have had many things go yuck after I've put them in the fridge 🤦‍♀️. Thanks again.

I started sharing lunchboxes of what my kids ate years ago. I got into a daily habit of sharing most things they ate, but everyone seemed to love the lunchbox ideas. I never thought 6 years later, lunchboxes would be what helps support my family.


In between, life happened. I went through a divorce, took 6 months off social media, and focused entirely on my three boys. I published two hardcover cookbooks. I went back to work in a salon as a hairdresser, became manager, and stayed 4 years. Going back to work after 7 years as a stay-at-home mum gave me a different kind of purpose. It was during that time I met my partner Corey, and we started building a life together as a family.


These days you'll find me managing my sister's warehouse, sharing recipes online, and giving you everything that has helped me and my family through my ebooks. I have the greatest food manager who has opened doors I never thought possible. I've worked with brands I used to look up to and think "that's the dream one day."


And now, here we are.


I'm not lucky to be where I am. I work extremely hard and put my heart and soul into everything I do.


My passion is everything you see. I hope that these snippets of my life can show you that the only thing you can do wrong is not starting.

The lunchbox struggle is real.

Every parent knows the feeling. It's 7am, you're running late, and you're staring into the fridge with absolutely zero ideas. Again.
