Hi, I'm Kendra, and welcome to my little corner of the internet! Cooking with Kendra is more than just a food blog; it's a personal collection of recipes, stories, and kitchen adventures straight from my heart. I started this site to share my passion for wholesome, delicious, and achievable home cooking. Here, you'll find recipes that my family and I truly love, from comforting classics that have been passed down through generations to new favorites inspired by my travels and everyday life. My goal is to make you feel like we're in the kitchen together, sharing tips and a love for good food.
I believe that cooking should be a joyful and stress-free experience. That's why I focus on creating recipes with clear, easy-to-follow instructions and using ingredients that are readily available. Each post includes personal notes, tips for success, and step-by-step photos to guide you. Whether you're a beginner cook just starting your journey or an experienced home chef looking for new inspiration, I hope you find something here that inspires you to get in the kitchen and create a delicious meal.
My recipes are organized just like my own recipe box, filled with categories for every occasion. Check out my "Weeknight Dinners" for quick and easy meal ideas that the whole family will love. In the "Sunday Suppers" section, you'll find heartier, slow-cooked dishes perfect for a relaxing weekend. I have a serious sweet tooth, so my "Desserts & Baking" category is overflowing with cakes, cookies, pies, and breads that are perfect for satisfying any craving.
You'll also find sections dedicated to "Healthy & Light" options for when you want something nutritious yet flavorful, and "Appetizers & Party Food" for all your entertaining needs. I love celebrating the seasons, so look out for seasonal collections featuring fresh produce like summer berries or autumn pumpkins. Browse by course, ingredient, or dietary need—I have a growing collection of vegetarian and gluten-free options too!
A great meal is often about more than just the recipe. In my "Kitchen Tips" section, I share all the little secrets I've learned over the years. This includes practical advice on meal prepping to save time, how to stock a smart pantry, and my reviews of favorite kitchen tools and appliances that I can't live without. I want to help you become a more efficient and confident cook.
I also love to share guides on basic techniques, like how to make a perfect vinaigrette or how to get a crispy skin on chicken. These are the building blocks that will allow you to go beyond the recipe and start creating your own dishes. Think of this section as your personal cooking school, with me as your friendly instructor.
I often get asked if my recipes are tested. Yes! I personally develop and test every single recipe in my own home kitchen, often multiple times, to make sure it works perfectly before I share it with you. Can you ask questions about a recipe? Of course! I love hearing from you. Please leave a comment on the recipe post, and I'll do my best to answer it quickly.
The best way to stay connected is to subscribe to my email newsletter. You'll get my latest recipes and a personal note from me delivered right to your inbox. You can also follow my daily kitchen life on Instagram and Pinterest. Thank you for stopping by, and I can't wait to see what you cook!
