Kelly BeJelly

Kelly Bejelly is the recipe developer, writer and photographer behind the popular grain-free food blog, Agirlworthsaving.net. She is the author of the cookbook, Paleo Eats: 101 Comforting Gluten-Free, Grain-Free and Dairy-Free Recipes for the Foodie in You.

After being diagnosed as pre-diabetic in 2009, in a last-ditch effort to save herself, she tried the Paleo diet. Within six months, she lost 65 lbs, normalized her blood sugars, and ended her battle with mental anxiety and depression.

Her cooking style focuses on "Paleo Cooking from Heart". You know what I'm talking about. . .

The soft chocolate chip cookies you shared with your mom hot out of the oven. The sweet and sour meatballs that you got every time you visited your favorite Chinese restaurant. The key lime pie your grandmother made every time she visited.

She lives in Portland, Oregon with her husband and her two sons.
