About Me

Hello! I’m Karen. The cook, recipe developer, and photographer behind The Tasty Bite, a blog dedicated to all things delicious. I spent the early part of my childhood in Hong Kong, then later in New York, and now call Colorado home where I live with my husband and our daughter.

Food has always been something near and dear to my heart. My favorite food memories involve helping out in my mother and grandmother’s kitchen when I was young, and gathering around a table of delicious, home-cooked dishes with my family. My love for cooking continued into my adult life as I wanted to serve my family and friends wholesome meals that I could really feel good eating. Whenever possible I use fresh ingredients and whole foods, even if it means a couple extra steps to my recipes.

I love to entertain friends and family, and I’m excited about parties, holidays, and pretty much all occasions that involve people gathering around good food. When I’m not keeping myself busy in the kitchen, I like to travel, explore the outdoors (which we have plenty of here in CO!), sample different food ingredients, and be inspired by the restaurants and foods I get to try.

About the Blog

I started this blog in April 2012 as a creative outlet for me to share my culinary adventures with family and friends. Since then, it’s become much more than a side hobby! I have created a collection of tried and true recipes that are family-friendly using everyday accessible ingredients. It’s also a place for me to continuously challenge myself with new recipes and cooking techniques. 

I hope that you’ll like the recipes you find here.  It’s a mix of healthy and indulgence, and always delicious!
