About Dad’s Cookin’

Cooking meals from scratch tastes better, is healthier, saves you money, and is extremely gratifying to do.

I first learned to enjoy cooking as a bachelor fresh out of college – if I wanted some delicious variety I knew it was up to me. Friends and family have long encouraged me in this hobby so I wanted to share my ideas & experiences with more people.

What I do like to do is cook. I like planning meals as much as cooking them. I like to experiment. I like to chop onions and mince garlic. And I like to share – I like to have people come over to eat and I’m happy to share recipes.

I have personally made all of the recipes on this site. Most of the recipes have first come from somewhere else (and I credit the source when I can) but I have modified them or combined them based on further research and testing. I’m trying to keep the recipes true to their roots, while at the same time keeping it real for the amateur cook.

No ads, no scrolling forever to find the recipe, no pop-ups, just real recipes for real people. Enjoy! And let me know what you think!
