Welcome to Make Your Meals! My name is Mary and I love to eat, cook and create recipes that you can make right in your own kitchen.
With over 35 years of cooking experience and over 20 years of recipe development I share recipes that are easy to make and loved by my own family and friends.
All of the recipes that you find here are ones that I have made over and over again and have been approved by myself, my husband, parents, grandparents, teenagers and even picky eating children.
I also develop and test recipes for Old World Garden Farms, a gardening, DIY, and cooking website that my husband and I created over 12 years ago. Here I focus on making recipes from the fresh ingredients from our garden along with classic comfort food recipes that remind us of our childhood.
In addition, now that we are empty nesters, I develop and share recipes that are designed to serve two people on my website iCookfortwo.com
Here at Make Your Meals you will find a variety of recipes including appetizers, soups, main dishes, side dishes, desserts and more that focus on easy to find, common ingredients that can be made by novice cooks but are elegant enough for seasoned chefs!
A new recipe is published 3 times per week to make meal planning in your own home easy and convenient.
Please sign up to receive recipes directly to your inbox and follow Make Your Meals on Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram. I would love it if you would share the recipes so that your family and friends can enjoy making meals at home too!
You will find affiliate links to the products that I love (and truly use), which helps me pay for the cost of running this website without any additional cost to you!
