About

My mission with The Only is to share the only recipes you’ll ever need. Instagram and TikTok are oversaturated with recipes and, honestly, who has the time to try them all? These recipes are thoughtfully put together drawing on inspiration from my favorite cookbooks and chefs (and yes, instagram) and are made dozens of times before they are shared here. So congratulations, the search is over, these are your new go-to recipes, and the only one’s you’ll ever need!

New here? Check out my most popular recipes:

  • The Only Chocolate Avocado Recipe You’ll Ever Need
  • The Only Chicken Parm Recipe You’ll Ever Need
  • The Only Caesar Salad Dressing Recipe You’ll Ever Need

Who Am I?

Fifteen years ago I ran out of money while living in NYC. I started taking pictures at restaurants of my favorite meals and menus and tried my best to recreate them at home on a tight budget. Fast forward to present day and I’m on a new journey cooking for twin toddlers and finding new and adventurous ways to make meals my entire family actually wants to eat. I’m a former media producer with no professional culinary training, and like you I just enjoy cooking and eating really good food.

My philosophy on cooking isn’t rocket science. I believe that 50% of being a “good cook” is actually wanting to cook in the first place. The next 25% is having the ingredients or knowing how to shop for them, and the final 25% is yes, a little intuition and experience. In short, if you want to cook and enjoy it, you will be good! If you don’t, and find no joy in it, you probably won’t be.

One last thing. You know how every single food blog and recipe on the internet makes you scroll roughly 20 times while you dodge advertisements and pop-ups just to get to the ingredient list? My promise to you is never scrolling through any advertisements to find the recipe, I won’t push affiliate links on you, nor will you have to read about my entire day before you get to an ingredient list. Just simple, clear, easy to read recipes that you can trust.
