Hi, I’m Peyton, a food and lifestyle blogger. I love sharing my recipes and life with you all. Choosing Balance is a place where I share recipes, real life, and now as a new mom- parenthood! You’ll find a mix of healthy recipes, quick recipes, fun recipes, & a little bit about my life too. Thanks for being here!

How I Started Choosing Balance

I didn’t grow up eating healthy or in a household that cooked often. We ate lots of frozen pizzas, chicken tenders, & takeout. When I was on my own in college, I found myself struggling with eating healthy, cooking for myself, and just overall navigating my relationship with food. I started Choosing Balance in 2017 as a way to connect with others learning to cook & trying to eat healthy. It has evolved into the website it is today where I share my recipes and life but I always want to keep a focus on easy, healthy recipes because that was exactly what I needed when I first started cooking for myself.

BEING HEALTHY AND HAPPY IS POSSIBLE

My intention behind it is to show people that it is possible to be healthy. You don’t have to live in a big city, have fancy ingredients, or spend hours a day on cooking. There isn’t a certain diet everyone has to follow and you don’t have to eliminate the foods you love. Be kind to yourself, be kind to others, and together let’s make this world a happier, healthier place.
