Jenna Passaro is on a mission to help foodies cook up their wildest dreams — in and out of the kitchen.
Years ago, Jenna ditched a predictable career path with very few vacation days to pursue a life of fun, food and travel.
Along the way, she started Sip Bite Go and wrote The Home Chef’s Sous Vide Cookbook. Jenna also hosts the podcast, My Weird Food Obsession, which explores the fascinating stories behind people who pursue careers in peculiar food niches.
Jenna is based in Portland, OR and is always in the mood for pizza.

Elaine, what a pleasure to chat with you. When you asked me to be on the show, I thought how wild it is to imagine that just a year ago, I was deeply indulging in your podcast while getting through a kitchen renovation… unable to cook much or blog at the time.
Being on the show was a great opportunity to reflect on the food blogging journey and celebrate it at the same time. And, what a joy to experience your beautiful voice 1:1 haha 🙂 I can’t be the only one who thinks you have the smoothest voice in podcast land! Many thanks for your interest and time. Loving the new “Dishing” title of the show.
XO and hope to catch up on my podcast with you in the coming months.
Cheers, Jenna from Sip Bite Go

Thanks so much Jenna! The pleasure was mine! It was fun chatting with you and getting to know you better. I’ve been following your journey for a while and was happy when you agreed to be on the podcast. 🙂
