About
Welcome!
I’m Sarah, the creator and founder of this site. I’m so happy you’re here! The main focus of my blog is to share approachable and seasonal plant-based recipes to inspire a healthy lifestyle.
I live in Athens, GA with my husband Brandon, our son and our two rescue pups Lucy and Charlie. My favorite things include iced matcha, colorful meals and spending time with my family in nature.
My Journey to Making Thyme for Health
My passion for healthy food started when I was in college, studying healthcare sciences. During my clinical experience in various hospitals, I observed an alarming amount of disease, many of which were simply a result of poor lifestyle choices. Around the same time, my husband brought to my attention what was taking place behind that scenes at many factory farms across the country. As a result, we both decided to become vegetarians.
Between trying to balance a busy schedule and the desire to give up eating meat, we often turned to the freezer section for processed meals. Even though we were eating a vegetarian diet, it wasn’t necessarily healthy and I didn’t feel my best. I decided that if I wanted to improve the way I felt, I was going to have to take the time to cook meals made from wholesome ingredients. From there I started researching plant-based proteins and how to develop well-balanced, nutrient dense recipes.
In 2013, I created Making Thyme for Health as a way to share my recipes and healthy lifestyle, while connecting with others. I continued to work in healthcare until 2016, when I made the decision to focus my energy full-time on my blog. To this day, I continue to run my site entirely by myself which has it challenges, considering the ever-changing world of the internet.
Thank you so much for being here. I hope you enjoy the recipes and are able to find something that inspires you!
