About

Welcome to SF United to Reduce Diabetes!

I’m Jean Schultz the sole creator of this blog. I could not be happier to have you here! I’m convinced that you can love sweets and veggies equally, that eating wholesome meals shouldn’t mean giving up the flavors you adore, and that delicious, satisfying food should be accessible to everyone. My recipes are healthy, affordable, approachable, and delectable, and I can’t wait to share them with you!

I started SF United to Reduce Diabetes in 2008, when my husband was in law school. I was in a new city where the one person I knew was in a serious relationship with the library, and I needed a casual hobby to keep myself occupied while he cuddled with his books.

Just two and a half years after launching my blog, I quit my full-time consulting job to pursue my blog exclusively. My “hobby” had ignited a fire. Not only did I want to eat healthy recipes that tasted fantastic, I wanted to teach others to do the same.

Eating “healthy” is too often depicted as being hard, expensive, and bland. NOT TRUE. I’m fiercely passionate about creating recipes that are easy to make, affordable, and that most importantly of all, taste incredible.

I never imagined that blogging would be my full time career, but I am tremendously grateful. Millions of people visit this site every month and make my recipes every day; it’s both incredibly humbling and a responsibility that I take seriously.
