Welcome to my kitchen!

Hi there! I’m Sofia—culinary explorer, cookbook author, and mom to three energetic little ones. My love affair with food started way back in my grandmother’s cozy kitchen, where the sweet scent of her famous apple pies and the crackle of bacon on a Sunday morning worked their magic on me. Those simple, heartwarming moments lit a spark that turned into a lifelong passion for cooking.After graduating from culinary school, I set out to reimagine classic American dishes, blending timeless recipes with fresh, modern flavors and techniques. I believe in keeping things simple yet soulful—allowing every ingredient to shine. That mindset has shaped my cookbooks, which have become go-to companions for home cooks eager to bring a little more excitement to their everyday meals.

Why I Started Foodie Recipess:

I started this journey because I believe cooking should be joyful, not intimidating. I wanted to create a space where anyone—from beginners to seasoned cooks—can find recipes that fit their lifestyle and bring people together. Food has the power to tell stories, create memories, and nourish our connections, and Foodie Recipess is my way of sharing that magic with you.

When I’m not experimenting with recipes or jotting down ideas for my next book, you’ll probably catch me kicking a soccer ball around with my kids at the park or planning the next big neighborhood potluck. Sharing food is my love language—whether it’s at the dinner table, in the pages of my books, or during one of my cooking classes. I believe every meal has a story, and nothing makes me happier than helping others create their own tasty traditions.
