Hey guys! Welcome to Entertaining the RV Life.

About me

I’m Holly, creator of Entertaining the RV LIfe! I am a wife, a mother, and a real lover of food. I believe that creating new recipes and sharing them with the people I love is one of the most enjoyable things in life.

I also enjoy traveling the country with my family in our RV. Visiting new places and experiencing all of the beauty this country has to offer lights me up.

Entertaining the RV Life is my online platform where you will find new recipe ideas. But, I also share tips for making those recipes in a small space with limited cooking utensils and appliances.

I test products and recipes that make creativity in an RV-sized kitchen a possibility. I will show you that you can make amazing meals in YOUR tiny kitchen too.

I make plenty of one-pot meals that are easy to throw together without a lot of ingredients, but I also show you that space doesn’t have to hinder your ability to make elegant, more technical dishes as well.

Whether you live in your RV full-time or just travel in it often, it’s time to stop being intimidated by your limited space. Let’s find joy in cooking again!

Entertaining the RV Life Kitchen

Our story

My husband and I have been married for 25 years. We raised two amazing boys, and the last one is about to leave the nest.

Now what?

We have been entertaining the idea of moving into our RV full-time for a while now. It will be just the two of us soon. We won’t need all of the space that we had when the kids were home.

We can travel, spend less money on utilities, and spend less time doing chores on our days off. This will allow us more time to pursue the things we are passionate about.

The only problem with that is that one of my greatest passions is my joy of cooking and entertaining. My kitchen is where I go to show my creativity. I love nothing more than to present my friends and family with a meal that I have created. The thought of no longer having that outlet had me second-guessing our decision.

The kitchens in RVs are generally not something to write home about. Ours is pretty big, but I was still had to get rid of a lot of my things. I also don’t have anywhere near the amount of counter space to work with.

My idea

It seems like more people are making the same decision that we are pondering. There are tons of YouTube channels about people who are ditching conventional life and living in their RVs full-time. There are also a lot of us out there who share my love of cooking and entertaining. I decided that I needed to find a way to combine the two.

That sparked the idea to create a blog. A place where I could experiment with cooking in a tight space…with a lot less to work with… and share what I learn along the way with you!

My Vision

To create a community of like-minded people who share my love of all things food, travel and just living a simple, more joyful life. I want to show you that you don’t need a lot of fancy gadgets. You just need a few good tools, a bit of patience, and the desire to bring delicious meals to the table.
