Hello and Welcome to The Cookin’ Chicks! So glad you’re here!
I’m Kristin, a Colorado-born foodie that has been sharing family friendly recipes for over 13 years! What started as a hobby sharing family recipes with friends, has evolved into a full-time adventure sharing comfort food recipes with people around the world! With over 750 recipes, there is bound to be something for everyone!
Every recipe, new and old, is on this site, however, you can also find me on Instagram, Pinterest, Youtube, Facebook, and Tik Tok!
Growing up, I always loved helping my mom cook. Whether it was holiday dinners, or Friday night dessert, my mom was always preparing something.
As I grew older, and started a family of my own, I wanted to pass down my enjoyment of cooking to my three young children, and I wanted my hubby to enjoy the home cooked meals every night. I wanted to share with my family the passion I have for cooking and I wanted to watch my family smile each night after enjoying my latest creation.
I started this blog to keep my recipes somewhere handy, but in the process, realized there’s a whole world of people that I want to be passionate about food like I am! Whether you are looking for a dessert, appetizer, or a quick, family friendly main dinner dish, I’m sure you’ll find something on this blog to brighten up your day!
What You Can Expect to Find
- Family-Friendly Recipes. This is my MAIN focus! I am a mom of three kids and when my kids were little, I know the struggles of picky eaters, allergies, busy nights, and simply the struggles of getting food on the table. This is why majority of my recipes are family friendly recipes that all three of my kids have given thumbs up to.
- Tips for Success. No one wants to make a batch of cookies and have it result in a fail, right? Well, each recipe, I share tips and advice so you have nothing but success in the kitchen.
- Recipes for all occasions. Whether you are looking for a casserole, side dish, dessert, salad, sauce, or drink, you’ll find lots of great options as you browse. Hosting company? I have you covered! Need a new Holiday recipe? Take a look through my categories! This site was created to make life easier for YOU!
My Promise to You
- Here at The Cookin’ Chicks, I promise to share recipes that are packed with flavor, easy to make, and ones you will want to share with your family. Each recipe is tested multiple times, prepared and served to friends and family that will give their true opinions, and tweaked accordingly. I’ll never share a recipe that my family and friends didn’t enjoy.
- I won’t include a recipe that requires a long list of ingredients you have to run out and get. No one wants to go to the store looking for ingredients they’ve never heard of, right? I love simplicity! Getting food on the table that the family can enjoy together is my main goal.
- You’ll always feel welcome and included. In fact, I LOVE hearing from you! From emails, comments, and social media interactions, I LOVE connecting to you all! Each time I post a recipe, I anxiously await the comments, opinions, and reviews because it helps me understand my audience, what everyone is looking for, and of course, just simply socializing! After all, I want us to be friends!!
