Meet Cleo, the Heart Behind the Recipes

I’m Cleo, a passionate cook, flavor enthusiast, and the creator of Recipes 2 You. I am so glad you’re here! This blog is a space where professional culinary techniques meet the warmth of a home kitchen. Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned home cook, my goal is to help you create meals that turn ordinary days into special occasions.

Why I Cook

For me, food is more than just a meal—it is a way to connect, a way to share culture, and a way to show love. My journey started in my mother’s kitchen, watching her turn simple, humble ingredients into feasts that brought the whole neighborhood together.

I spent my late 20s traveling and working in various kitchens, learning that the secret to a great dish isn’t always a complicated recipe, but the quality of the ingredients and the patience in the process. Now, at 32, I’ve dedicated my career to simplifying these gourmet flavors so you can recreate them in your own home, no matter how busy your schedule is.

My Philosophy

At Recipes 2 You, we follow three simple rules:

  1. Quality First: We focus on fresh, seasonal ingredients that make flavors pop.

  2. Accessible Gourmet: I take professional « chef secrets » and break them down into easy, followable steps.

  3. Food is Community: Every recipe on this site is tested and shared with the hope that it brings your family and friends closer together.

What You’ll Find Here

From 30-minute weeknight dinners to slow-cooked Sunday roasts and decadent desserts, every recipe is:

  • Tested and Re-tested: I ensure every measurement is accurate so your results are perfect every time.

  • Step-by-Step Instructions: Clear guidance and tips to help you master new techniques.

  • Nutritional Balance: A mix of indulgent comfort foods and healthy, vibrant meals.
