Hi Michael,
I’d love to connect you with Violet Witchel
As college students and busy young professionals settle back into packed schedules, Violet has become a go-to voice for realistic, affordable recipes that make healthy eating feel achievable. Her signature dense bean salads and flexible meal formulas are designed to stretch across multiple meals, minimize food waste, and take the daily stress out of deciding what to cook.
Today, Violet has grown to more than 3 million followers across platforms, built one of the top-ranked food Substacks
Violet would be a great source to discuss easy, budget-friendly recipes for students, how to meal prep without eating the same thing every day, pantry staples that can be mixed and matched into multiple meals, ways to build filling, high-protein, fiber-rich lunches on a college budget, and simple strategies for reducing food decision fatigue during busy school weeks.
Whether you're putting together a back-to-school recipe roundup or looking for expert commentary on healthy eating habits for students, I'd love to see if Violet could be a fit.
