Podcast Ep 87: Siri Daly
Siri Daly is not only the creator of the Siriously Delicious food blog, author of Seriously Delicious: 100 Nutritious (and Not So Nutritious) Simple Recipes for the Real Home Cook
In this fun, breezy discussion, we chat with Siri about how the self-taught “passionate home cook” manages so many meals and schedules in her day while remaining (relatively) sane.

Siri spent years working in television production before embracing life as a full-time mom, which has its own joys — and setbacks. Some days she is shepherding her kids to all of their appointments and others she is waking up super early to co-host a cooking segment on Today with her husband. (And sometimes they cut that cooking segment time in half with zero notice — hello, endorphin rush!)
In this ep, we talk about how she creates recipes, fits in workouts on busy mornings, includes her kids in cooking process and more. Trust us: you will feel like you met your new cooking and mom BFF. We sure did!
