Mama used to say… if you’re hungry, go find a recipe!

From Mama’s Kitchen to Yours — Ellie James of Easy Cooks Recipes

Hi, I’m Ellie James, the cook behind Easy Cooks Recipes! My love for cooking started in my mama’s cozy kitchen on our North Carolina farm, where every meal she made was an act of love.

She taught me that food could comfort, heal, and bring people together—and I’ve carried that lesson with me ever since.

Now, I share those same heartfelt, homey recipes with over a million home cooks, helping others find joy in simple, soulful meals made with love.
