Hi there!

I’m Ella Thompson

A passionate home chef with over 10 years of experience in the kitchen. I’m also a wife and a proud mom of two amazing kids who inspire me to create easy, delicious, and family-friendly meals every day.

At Recipes Freshly, you’ll find simple, wholesome recipes made with fresh, easy-to-find ingredients. My goal is to make cooking fun and stress-free—because great food doesn’t have to be complicated! Whether you’re a seasoned cook or just starting out, I’m here to guide you with step-by-step instructions, helpful tips, and kitchen tricks to ensure success every time.

From hearty comfort foods like my Creamy Chicken Pot Pie to lighter options like Zesty Lemon Herb Salmon, I aim to create recipes that cater to every taste and occasion. And let’s not forget desserts—my Decadent Chocolate Lava Cake is a family favorite that’s sure to impress!

A Little About Me

My love for cooking started in my grandmother’s kitchen, where I learned how simple ingredients can create something truly special. Over the years, I’ve developed a passion for making homemade meals that are both comforting and easy to prepare.

After working as a professional chef for nearly two decades, I’ve realized that the best dishes aren’t about fancy techniques or hard-to-find ingredients—they’re about fresh flavors, simple methods, and a little creativity. That’s the philosophy behind Recipes Freshly—helping you make delicious meals without the stress.

When I’m not in the kitchen, I love spending time with my family, exploring farmers’ markets, and experimenting with new flavors to bring you even more tasty recipes. To me, food is more than just nourishment—it’s about bringing people together, making memories, and enjoying every bite!

Great recipes start with Fresh ideas, just like at Recipes Freshly!
