We believe that
- Anyone who can follow directions can cook, and
- Good food can be made simply.
That’s why this blog exists. We wish we had fancy kitchens with pre-measured glass bowls containing a zillion ingredients, but we don’t. We have simple means but big dreams.
This blog highlights our favorite recipes, dishes that are both super good and super simple, requiring just a few common ingredients and basic cooking skills. So whether you’re a novice or Alton Brown, hopefully you can find something you like on this site. And for those of you who have surpassed novice-hood, check out the Uncommon Food tab for splendid meals that are just a little more complicated.
