    About me

    a picture of Markie in her kitchen

    Hi, nice to meet you!

    My name is Markie and I am a passionate home cook, food blogger and recipe developer based in the beautiful Chiltern Hills, UK.

    Working in marketing communications during the day and blogging by night, I absolutely love cooking and exploring different flavours from all parts of the world.

    Also, I quite enjoy grocery shopping (weird, right?), BUT at the same time, I prefer when I don't have to do it too often!

    Do you know the feeling when you open your fridge only to see you've run out of fresh food?

    Being able to cook delicious dishes without the need to run to the shop is the absolute best!

    And so I'm here to help you create easy and tasty meals from typical pantry ingredients!

    On this blog, you will find easy pantry and freezer recipes, together with healthy cooking, baking & budget-friendly food shopping tips.

    Each recipe contains a list of possible alternative ingredients and information on where to swap fresh for frozen and/or dried for canned - and vice versa!

    I hope to inspire you in your kitchen!
