Greetings, I’m Adrienne and I love food and making delicious meals and desserts with simple, fresh and affordable ingredients. This is where I share the fresh, flavorful, and healthy recipes I actually and eat in real life. If it’s not something I’d serve, it won’t show up here. My goal is to inspire you with food that’s both exciting, healthy and doable—no fancy chef skills required.

I started cooking when I was 9 years old in my Grandmothers kitchen. I would help her with little tasks but learned most by watching and tasting. The first dish I ever made was Eggplant Parmesan for my 4th grade class. I had no idea what it was but the picture in the cookbook my Aunt Connie gave me was so captivating I had to make it.

My dish was a total, overwhelming, delicious success as it reigned supreme over the deviled eggs, tuna sandwiches and ketchup spaghetti brought in by some of my classmates. My teacher was super impressed and I have been cooking, collecting and creating recipes ever since. I love designing recipes that are approachable, affordable, and full of flavor. Whether you’re cooking for one, feeding your family, or just trying something new, I’m here to make sure it tastes amazing.

Let’s make good food—simple, satisfying, and always made with love.
