About The Schmidty Wife

The Schmidty Wife is a food blog creating real fresh food for real fun families. The recipes are easy to make and focus on fresh ingredients that people are familiar with.

My goal is to help families maintain a healthy lifestyle by helping them make well balanced food at home that they can enjoy together.

I believe eating heathy as a family doesn’t have to be overcomplicated, expensive, or difficult. With simple ingredients from real grocery stores you can make you and your family a meal that you can sit down together and eat, plus feel good about.

The Schmidty Wife Blog is all about fresh family food that helps a family sit down and have a meal together. I am so happy you are here!

About Lauren Schmidt

Hi, I am Lauren! I am a wife, mother of two rambunctious boys, and lover of food. I live in Stratham, NH with my family and two dogs. I love living in New Hampshire, we have have house in the seacoast region so we are only 10 minutes from the beach (yes New Hampshire has ocean coastline) and only 20 minutes from the mountains! It is basically the dream.

I believe that real fresh food is the foundation to a healthy life and family. Her favorite foods include hummus, chips & salsa, sushi, and pizza.

When I’m not cooking up something in the kitchen I love spending time with my family outdoors, working on DIY projects, & talking to all of my plants. I think I am an exceptional sudoku player, I enjoy wine and I love a good margarita on a Friday night.

I love summer and most often during the nice weather you will find me out hiking or with my family roadtripping with our pop-up camper.

I truly hope you enjoy my recipes!
