Welcome!
I’m Bailey, the person behind the recipes you’ll find here on Healthy Hearty Recipes.
As the name suggests, the recipes here are sometimes healthy, sometimes hearty, and sometimes they’re both! My cooking (and eating) style has continued to evolve as I have, and I’ve come to find eating well and enjoying food doesn’t have to be complicated, and that there’s a time and place for everything! Which is why you’ll find some recipes that use heavy cream, and some that are totally dairy-free. You’ll find some that are meatless, and some that are meat-centric. Substitutions are added where we can because we really want these recipes to work for everyone, and almost all will have gluten-free options!
At HHR, we know, understand, and totally respect that not one way of eating serves everyone – and that no matter what that looks like for you and your family, we have recipes for you. It’s the goal to make those recipes delicious, easy, and usually in the style of cozy, midwest, home-cooking that I grew up with here in Minnesota. We love 30 minute meals, use the heck out of the slow cooker, and enjoy a simple pasta dish, too.
When I’m not in the kitchen or behind a computer, I’m usually reading in a big comfy chair, planning my next trip on my travel website, or snuggling with my dogs. My husband and I enjoy trying out new restaurants, walking around the many lakes in Minneapolis, and exploring new places!

Thanks for stopping by!
With love – Bailey
