About Me

Hey! I'm Marissa.

I am so glad you're here.

I created Over the Spoon during a season of life where getting dinner on the table felt… way harder than it should have. Between busy days, a toddler at my feet, and the mental load of “what’s for dinner?” on repeat, I knew something had to change.

So I started simplifying.

I found that the meals that actually worked in real life weren’t complicated...they were balanced, high-protein, and easy to prep ahead. Meals you can throw together on a busy weeknight, reheat without thinking twice, or pull from the freezer when the day gets away from you.

Most of us don’t have time for elaborate recipes or hours in the kitchen and I don’t believe you should need them to eat well.

Around here, you’ll find:

• Quick, high-protein dinners you can make on a weeknight
• Make-ahead and freezer-friendly meals that save your future self
• Simple, nourishing recipes made with real, everyday ingredients
• Easy meal prep strategies that actually fit into your life

My goal?
To help your future self feel taken care of. Whether that’s a stocked freezer, a ready-to-go lunch, or just one less decision to make at the end of a long day.

Eating well doesn’t have to be complicated.
