About Olive

Hi, I’m Olive! I used to work the typical 9-5 for a stuffy corporate company… and well, let’s just say it wasn’t exactly my cup of tea. For years, I stuck to the “safe” path– commuting, clocking in, answering emails, and counting down until the weekend.

Cooking was my escape. It made me feel creative, grounded, and alive in a way nothing else did. Late at night, I’d be testing recipes, scribbling ideas in notebooks, and dreaming about building something of my own.

Then one day, I stopped treating my dream like a side project.

I left my 9-5 and poured my energy into this blog– a place to share the healthy, flavorful recipes that made me fall in love with cooking.

Now I spend my days creating meals that feel good and taste good. Whether you’re here for a quick weeknight dinner or inspiration to use up that bunch of dill in your fridge, I hope Olive Kitchen makes you want to slow down, savor more, and enjoy real food again.

I believe healthy doesn’t have to be boring. I’m here to share simple, flavorful recipes that make healthy eating something you’ll love.
