About

Kori Butler, founder of Flexitarian Eats

Hi, I'm Kori. I'm the founder of Flexitarian Eats, and also the recipe developer, writer and photographer. I'm the one wearing all the hats!

About Kori

I'm a culinary school-trained chef specializing in holistic wellness and nutrition, but my path wasn't traditional! Before pursuing food full-time, I spent 20+ years as an accountant and CFO.

Education & Expertise:

  • Culinary school–trained chef, specializing in holistic wellness & nutrition
  • Bachelor's in Applied Human Sciences
  • Master's in Business Administration (MBA)
  • Master's Degree in Accounting
  • Member of the International Association of Culinary Professionals

Cooking has always been my real passion. I learned from my mother, grandmother and aunts, who are the best cooks ever. Then I worked in restaurants and catering all through high school and college.

In 2018 I started my first food blog, Seeking Good Eats, and in 2019 I left accounting to run it full-time. In 2023 I launched Slow Cooked Eats for the crockpot recipes that fed my husband and three boys while I worked full-time.

Finding Balance, Not Perfection

I'm a total foodie. I love cooking and trying new flavors, and food has always been a source of comfort. But as I moved into my 50s, my love of food, paired with less-than-healthy habits, caught up with me. It was a wake-up call for sure.

Now I'm on a lifelong journey to find balance, not perfection. Food should nourish, movement should energize, and both should be something we enjoy.

About Flexitarian Eats

Flexitarian Eats is the newest sister site to Seeking Good Eats and Slow Cooked Eats. It's home for my mostly meatless recipes for real life.

Flexitarian simply means eating mostly plants, with room for meat when you want it. No strict rules, no labels. Just good food that happens to be plant-forward.

Here you'll find:

  • Make-ahead breakfasts like overnight oats, baked oatmeal and scones
  • Hearty dinners with beans, lentils and tofu
  • Soups and salads that actually fill you up
  • Hummus, dips and snacks for any time of day

Many recipes are vegan, and most are vegetarian. Looking for lower-carb comfort food? Visit Seeking Good Eats. Want dinner from the crockpot? That's Slow Cooked Eats.

100% Human Crafted: every recipe and photo on Flexitarian Eats is made and tested by me, not AI-generated.

Life Now

These days the boys are grown, and it's me, my husband and our two dogs. We travel as much as we can, both around the U.S. and abroad.
