About Me:

Meet Marin Lockridge

Marin knows the dinner-time struggle intimately. As a working mother of two energetic kids, she's lived through the "what's for dinner?" panic more times than she can count. That daily challenge became her inspiration: developing recipes that are genuinely quick, honestly healthy, and actually enjoyed by the whole family—picky eaters included.

Before joining Recipes & Cook, Marin spent years documenting her family meal experiments, figuring out which shortcuts work and which ones don't, and learning how to sneak vegetables into dishes her kids would happily devour. Her practical, been-there-done-that approach resonates with busy parents everywhere.

Her Culinary Philosophy

Background & Expertise

Marin holds a degree in nutrition science and spent several years working in corporate wellness before pivoting to food content creation. That background gives her recipes a solid nutritional foundation—she understands balanced meals, proper portions, and how to make healthy food genuinely appealing. She's also completed training in food photography and recipe development, ensuring her dishes look as good as they taste.

When she's not in the kitchen, Marin enjoys hiking with her family, volunteering at her kids' school, and experimenting with container gardening on her apartment balcony. She's proof that you don't need a huge kitchen or endless free time to put great meals on the table.

Marin's mission is simple: help families eat better without the stress. Her recipes meet you where you are, with practical solutions for real-life cooking challenges.
