Jessie Price

The Climb

At *EatingWell*, the progression was incremental and legible: recipe contribution, then larger editorial responsibility, then the top editorial role. Jessie Price’s path shows how food media can be shaped by newsroom discipline as much as by recipe craft. The record here is one of continuity, with the magazine’s editorial voice developed through long practice rather than sudden reinvention. From 2003 through the editor-in-chief years, Jessie Price’s work stayed close to the mechanics of making a magazine readable, useful, and consistent.

Today

Jessie Price’s most visible *EatingWell* roles span from the 2003 recipe contribution to the editor-in-chief tenure that ran from 2013 to 2022. That span links two kinds of trade work that often sit apart: the exacting language of recipes and the editorial judgment required to shape a publication. In Jessie Price’s case, those forms of work sit inside the same career line, with food journalism remaining the constant while responsibility widened over time.

Signature

Jessie Price’s signature dishes include *Mussels with Thai Seasonings* and *BBQ Tofu Sandwich*. The pairing suggests range within a practical editorial instinct: one dish built around seasoning, the other around the direct appeal of a sandwich. Taken together, they point to a palate that values clarity, utility, and flavor that reads cleanly on the page.

In Their Words “For our readers, the print magazine is going to continue to be relevant and important. It’s a totally different experience than how they get the brand on digital.”
