About Dance Around the Kitchen
In 2018, Kelsey Byrnes started the food blog Dance Around the Kitchen as a way to share well-tested recipes to families around the world. With over 450 recipes and new recipes each week, followers love the approachable recipes designed for real life….those busy weeknights, the last minute birthday treats, and all the sweet tooth cravings!
What You’ll Find Here
- Easy weeknight meals. Think one-pot pasta dishes, simple soups, and slow cooker meals.
- Sweet treats. Cookies, no bake bars, cakes….take a look around my site and you’ll know I have a strong sweet tooth!
- Decadent desserts. For those holidays and occasions you want something special and delicious, but not finicky.
- & Much more! From the perfect holiday side dishes to drinks, snack mixes and beyond, you’re sure to find a recipe you’ll love!
Criteria For The Recipes
- As a food scientist, Kelsey has high standards for her recipes and tests each recipe multiple times to ensure they will be great every time! It’s a process she enjoys and loves the challenge of crafting something new and delicious.
- As a farm-wife who lives in a very rural part of the country, it’s also important to her that her recipes call for easy-to-find ingredients (you won’t be seeing any “specialty store” ingredients here!).
- Last but not least….Mom-tested, kiddo-approved! She’s got four kids and lots of family & friends nearby who love joining in on taste-test days with one stipulation…they give honest feedback so she can continue to improve!
