Hi, I’m Becky! Thanks for stopping by!

As you can tell, I love to be in the kitchen! I’ve been sharing my favorite recipes here since 2010, but my love for cooking started long before that. I began taking cooking classes in middle and high school, including a year-long restaurant class where we served lunch to teachers and staff. My passion grew even more after becoming a stay-at-home mom—when my first baby was just one and a great napper, I found myself diving into recipes, experimenting, and discovering the world of food blogs. Over the years, I’ve learned so much about creating simple, flavorful dishes and desserts that families love.

My cooking style is approachable and delicious. I focus on quick, easy recipes that the whole family will love. I spend plenty of time testing each recipe so I can share only the very best with you!

Some of my favorite recipes that I’ve created, tested, and shared on my blog include Fudgy and Chewy Brownies, Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookies, Chocolate Protein Energy Bites, Honey White Bread, and Chicken Sausage and Vegetable Skillet. (Yes, chocolate is kind of my favorite thing…okay, maybe my very favorite!)

My Family

My greatest joy, though, is my family. I’m married to Derek—we met in high school as friends, served missions for our church (he in Italy & Switzerland, I in El Salvador & Belize), and later fell in love while attending BYU. I graduated from BYU with a Bachelor’s in Public Health Education.

We live in Utah with our five amazing kids: Levi, Asher, Carina, Luke, and Bella. I love being home with them, and they love helping me cook—especially baking, measuring, stirring, and, of course, taste testing!

My Faith

Jesus Christ is at the center of my life. He gives me strength when things are hard, hope when life feels dark, light when I can’t see the way forward, and comfort when I need it most.  He means everything to me! I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and I invite you to learn more here. My faith has been such a blessing in my life. Knowing that I will one day be with loved ones again fills me with peace, hope, and gratitude.
