Jackfruitful Kitchen
Hi! I’m jackie.
Welcome to jackfruitful kitchen! I’m thrilled to be able to have a platform to share my favorite recipe creations and inspirations with you. I developed a love for cooking and fresh vegetables at a very young age while spending time in the kitchen with my parents, and it has only grown since then. My passion lies in creating beautiful and balanced food that is both healthy AND delicious. I love plant-based meals, cold-pressed juice, gluten-free baking, a good vegan cheese, and really great wine.
When I’m not in the kitchen or working, I love to be with my friends and family, husband Clinton, and our 14 year old English Creme Golden Retriever, Brinkley. We are an extremely active family and like to fill our time with hiking, camping, skiing, scuba diving, cycling, and sailing.
Our love for travel has taken us across the world, most recently to Southern France for our wedding in May. Traveling nurtures our souls and opens our eyes to new food, new wine, and new cultures.
The name jackfruitful kitchen + blog came from a brainstorm sesh with my BFF Megan Ratcliff and was inspired by 4 different parts. My first name (Jackie) + one of my favorite ingredients for vegan cooking (Jackfruit) + the ability to be full and satisfied by eating clean, whole, plant-based food + the goal to live a more fruitful life!
I hope that you enjoy my posts and find my recipes quite fruitful. ;) Cheers!
