A culinary expert, Holly Clegg was featured on many national shows and magazines and consulted for national brands and hospitals throughout the country. Clegg was diagnosed with stomach cancer in August 2018. After a brave fight, she transitioned to hospice in June 2019 and established the Holly Clegg Gastric Cancer Research Fund with her family. Surrounded by her family, she passed away on November 1, 2019.

It was Holly’s wish that her brand continue to be a resource for busy home cooks with her quick, healthy, and delicious recipes. Before she passed away, she created Team Holly to continue her work. Team Holly is made up of family and friends who oversee the brand’s social media and publishing operations. In late 2019, Team Holly partnered with Favorite Recipes Press, an imprint of Southwestern Publishing House, to commit to continuing Holly’s legacy.
