Welcome to Recipes by Alissa, a space created for those who believe that good food doesn’t need to be complicated.
I’m Alissa Clara Sanchez, a food lover who discovered her passion for cooking through simple beginnings. My journey didn’t start in a professional kitchen or culinary school, but in a small apartment with limited tools, basic ingredients, and a strong desire to create meals that felt comforting and familiar.
Cooking, for me, has always been about more than just recipes. It’s about learning through trial and error, gaining confidence step by step, and understanding that anyone can cook with a bit of curiosity and courage. Over time, those small experiments in the kitchen turned into a deep appreciation for homemade food that is honest, approachable, and full of flavor.
This blog was created to share recipes that are easy to follow, practical, and made with everyday ingredients. You won’t find unnecessary complexity here—just real food, clear steps, and ideas that fit into real life. Whether you’re a beginner or someone who simply enjoys home cooking, my goal is to help you feel comfortable and inspired in your own kitchen.
At Recipes by Alissa, food is about connection: connecting with flavors, memories, and the people we share our meals with. I hope this space encourages you to try new things, enjoy the process, and discover the joy of cooking at home.
Thank you for being here and for cooking along with me.
