6 Food Blog Success Stories [2023]

My name is Mason Woodruff, and I run Kinda Healthy Recipes, a food blog with around half a million sessions per month. We create recipes, guides, and resources for food-loving fitness enthusiasts.

I’m Lexi Harrison, 26-year old co-founder, and CEO of Crowded Kitchen. Crowded Kitchen is a plant-based recipe website and a photography and creative content business, with an organic audience of nearly 200k on Instagram.

We’ve grown our website views to several hundred thousand monthly and continue to grow our social media following by several thousand every month by focusing on creating extremely high-quality, engaging content. Today, we’re a 3-person full-time team and continue to grow month over month.

I am David Buchanan, a professional chef, and owner of Chefs-Resources.com, a website geared towards providing professional chefs with free detailed culinary info (seasonality, flavor profiles, etc.) about fresh fish, oysters, and cuts of meat, as well as tons of free kitchen management articles. Paid subscribers get access to our premium kitchen management resources such as Excel sheets (prep sheets, recipe templates, ordering guides, etc.), video tutorials, and kitchen management articles.

The site is not about recipes, but I am a Chef, so here is one of my favorite personal creations...seared scallops, spring pea puree, lemon beurre blanc, fingerling potatoes, golden beets, asparagus, corn kernels.

Cheryl started 40 Aprons, a food blog that is now earning $18,000/mo. In only 12 months, her blog income grew nearly 4,000%, and traffic increased 1,300%.
