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.
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 spent time researching plant-based proteins and started creating recipes that would help fuel my active lifestyle. My passion for eating seasonal, nourishing food has grown ever since!
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. For 13 years, I have done everything myself which continues to be a challenge for me but I love every second of it.
Although I publish new recipes at a much slower rate than when I first started, this allows me to share higher quality content with my audience. I hope you enjoy the recipes and are able to find something that inspires you too!
