I'm Katie, the food blogger, recipe creator, and photographer behind Sugar & Snap Peas. I specialize in easy, family-friendly recipes designed to take the stress out of cooking and bring delicious meals to your table that everyone will love!
My food blogging journey
My food blogging journey started in March 2021, but my cooking journey started decades before that. I was raised in a home where made-from-scratch meals were the norm. I inherited the desire to make homemade meals and have carried it with me throughout my life.
I don't have any recent or distant memories of being intimidated by the kitchen. In fact, I actually love the challenge of coming up with a delicious meal on the spot, without any prior knowledge of what's in the fridge or pantry.
Cooking experience
Cooking for people who are special to me is my love language. I have decades of personal experience, including cooking for college friends, hosting dinner parties, and preparing delicious meals for my husband.
In addition to cooking for friends and family, I also have the honor of providing nourishing meals for my three young children. Kids can be your biggest critics, and mine have forced me to expand beyond my cooking comfort zone.
Dinner recipes are my favorite!
Dinner recipes are my specialty and what I enjoy making the most! Here, you'll find everything from mouthwatering chicken dinner recipes, pasta, and pork recipes to slow cooker recipes and one-pot meals!
I especially love making chicken thighs, meatloaf, and pulled pork! Balsamic chicken thighs, Mexican taco meatloaf, and pulled pork pizza are some of my most requested dinners!

FAQs about me
I live in northern New York, along the beautiful St. Lawrence River. I was born and raised here and decided to make a life for myself here as well.
Coming up with a name for my blog was incredibly challenging! Ultimately, I decided on Sugar & Snap Peas because, at the time, sugar snap peas were my kid's favorite vegetable.
I started blogging for many reasons. Cooking and writing come naturally to me, so combining my talents and sharing them with the world made perfect sense.
