Erin Jensen
OWNER, FOUNDER AND CHIEF CONTENT CREATOR
Erin started The Wooden Skillet in October of 2015 while working as a full-time lawyer, wife, and mom. She grew-up cooking a variety of foods with her own mom and as she continued that tradition with her own family, she decided she wanted a place to explore and share her own recipes and creativity in the kitchen with others too! Fast forward nearly 9 years and somehow this “little” food blog is now a full digital media company and a full-time job!
She feels so lucky to get to do this every day and to show up to work at a place that allows her to better people’s lives by delivering real-food recipes and resources (and to do something that she loves)!
When she’s not in the kitchen creating recipes or behind a camera/computer, you can find her reading, playing outside, snuggling her 3 girls, hanging out in Northern Wisconsin, or out at the newest Minneapolis restaurant with the love of her life meandering their way through a 3 hour dinner. She also loves staying active, working out, playing tennis, hiking, and swimming!
