Welcome to “My Tried Recipes”! I’m Kate, and this space is my little corner of the internet where I share the recipes that bring warmth to my kitchen and smiles to my loved ones. Cooking has always been more than just a hobby for me; it’s a passion, a therapy, and a way to create memories that last a lifetime.

How It All Began

The story of “My Tried Recipes” started in my childhood kitchen, where the clatter of pots and the aroma of home-cooked meals were a daily ritual. My love for cooking grew as I watched my dad, who always seemed to know his way around a kitchen.

From perfectly flipping pancakes on lazy Sunday mornings to grilling burgers in the backyard, he made cooking look effortless—and so much fun.

A Father’s Love and Encouragement

My dad has always been my biggest supporter. He’s the reason I had the courage to start “My Tried Recipes” in the first place. Growing up, he’d always tell me, “Kate, don’t just follow the recipe—make it your own.” Those words stuck with me and became my cooking philosophy. Even when I doubted myself, he would remind me that the best recipes come from the heart. Whenever I experiment with a new dish, he’s my first taste tester and toughest critic, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Meet My Furry Sous Chef

No kitchen is complete without a little chaos, and mine comes in the form of my dog, Biscuit. He’s my four-legged sous chef who’s always by my side, hoping for a stray crumb or two.

Biscuit brings so much joy and energy to my life, and he’s even inspired a few dog-friendly treats that I’ll share here. Whether he’s lounging at my feet or wagging his tail to the rhythm of my chopping, Biscuit is a constant reminder of why I love what I do: bringing happiness to those I care about.
