Welcome to HealthyBellyEllie, a space dedicated to simple, nourishing food that fits real life. This site was created for anyone who loves comforting meals but also cares about feeling good, inside and out.

I believe cooking doesn’t need to be complicated to be healthy or delicious.

Meet Ellie

Hi, I’m Ellie Gentry, the cook and creator behind HealthyBellyEllie.
I live in New York, and my love for cooking started at home, experimenting with everyday ingredients and learning how food can truly support the way we feel.

Over the years, the kitchen became my happy place a space where I could slow down, get creative, and take care of myself and others through food.

What You’ll Find Here

HealthyBellyEllie is all about balance. You’ll find recipes that are:

• Easy to follow and family-friendly
• Made with real, accessible ingredients
• Comforting without being heavy
• Designed for everyday cooking

From simple dinners to cozy favorites, every recipe is created with practicality and enjoyment in mind.

My Cooking Philosophy

I don’t believe in extremes or perfection. I believe in food that feels good, tastes great, and fits into busy, real lives. Cooking should be enjoyable not stressful.

Healthy eating, to me, means finding a balance that works for you.

Why HealthyBellyEllie

This site is here to inspire confidence in the kitchen. Whether you’re cooking for your family, hosting friends, or preparing a meal just for yourself, my goal is to help you cook with ease and enjoy every bite.
