Welcome to Cooking with Ginger! I’m so happy you are here.

My name is Hannah. I’m the redhead gal behind Cooking with Ginger. π
I’m a 20-something chocoholicπ« who loves creating and trying new recipes! A lot of my cooking knowledge comes from what my mom taught me growing up. While the rest is all self-taught as I do not have any formal culinary training.
I created this blog as a sort of “recipe file.” Often times, friends and family would ask me for recipes or to remake a food dish for them. The trouble with this, however, is that I always forget what ingredients I used. I’m a bit of a “throw-it-together” kinda gal in the kitchen. π€·ββοΈ I rarely measure ingredients or remember what I used in a dish. I needed a way to document my kitchen creations and recipe adjustments. This blog is a way that I can share my recipes with friends, family, and anyone anywhere in the world.
Here you can find easy to follow recipes with step-by-step pictures, as well as video cooking tutorials for easy, fool-proof instructions. Featured recipes will range from baked goods to budget friendly dinners. While the majority of the posts here will be recipes, I also plan to share a little bit of non-food related content about my life as well.
Although I love my sweets… I also love making healthy nutritious meals. I believe that life is all about balance. A nice mix of vegetables and chocolate keeps me happy and feeling great.
Due to my love and passion for food and science, I received my Bachelor of Science degree in Nutrition and Dietetics in May of 2018. π©βππ

At University in 2016 I met my sweetheart, Jarrod. I wouldn’t want to adventure life with anyone else. He is the inspiration behind this site name, since he refers to me as his “ginger.” π₯°
Thanks for stopping by! I hope you enjoy your time spent cooking with me!
