About the Author

Grace Mortimer is mother to Harry. She lives in Gloucestershire with her long-term partner, Tom. She studied law at university and worked in sales for years but decided to start working part-time when Harry turned one. Grace is originally from Essex and grew up with extremely foodie parents but didn't develop her passion for cooking until her third year of university. She and Tom flip a coin at the weekends to see who gets to cook because they both enjoy it so much. Grace started an Instagram page, My First Meals, to share her quick, healthy recipes with any other parents struggling for ideas during lockdown and it has grown from there.
