Born and raised in a family of amazing cooks, I am the Head Chef here at Tasty Oven Recipes. I love cooking with all of my kitchen appliances- the Instant Pot, air fryer, bread machine, cooking blender, and slow cooker!

I haven't turned my oven on in 2 years. You can find me in my kitchen experimenting, making mistakes, and getting the burn notice...so you don't have to! Most importantly, I'm here perfecting all of my tried + true and brand new recipes to pass along to you! I'm glad you're here to join me in the cooking fun.

Welcome to Tasty Oven!

Where I no longer create oven recipes.

My goal is simple: to give you delicious Instant Pot, air fryer, slow cooker and bread machine recipes. And to show you the amazing things you can do with these intimidating appliances.

I was there once too. I was the I've had an Instant Pot for a year but I haven't used it yet person. And the why do I need an air fryer, the oven is the same thing! kind of gal.

Sound familiar? It took just a couple times before I was hooked and left my dinky old oven behind (I hated cleaning the thing anyway).

And now here I am converting all of my favorite recipes to be made in the Instant Pot, air fryer, and slow cooker. My bread machine is my oldest friend- and it makes some amazing bread (with the help of the creator behind it).

My recipes are for everyone- newbies and experts alike, families full of kids and those that aren't, dorm-living college students and the hard working truckers sick of buying food.
