Born and raised in Wisconsin, Kylie Lato grew up eating a traditional Midwestern "meat and potatoes" diet. Her fondest childhood memories include spending most weekends in the kitchen with her grandma measuring flour, mixing batter and making messes. As she grew up and moved out on her own, her love for food, cooking and photography continued to grow and develop until friends and family convinced her to start a blog.
These days, you'll still find Kylie in the kitchen on the weekends. Only now, it's her toddler helping her make all the messes! Kylie's daughter and husband are her official taste testers and all Midwest Foodie recipes are approved by them before they make it onto the blog.
As a working mom and busy blogger, Kylie understands how difficult it can be to get a wholesome dinner on the table at the end of the day. Through her blog, Midwest Foodie, she hopes to make your life easier by sharing simple, family-friendly recipes that are made with seasonal (mostly healthy) and accessible ingredients.
