👩‍🍳 About Me — Meet Rachel

It all started with a burnt lasagna and two hungry kids tugging at my apron.

Hi, I’m Rachel Moore—mom of two, former schoolteacher, and now your go-to guide for cooking simple, delicious meals without the chaos. I wasn’t born with a chef’s hat on my head. In fact, I used to dread dinner time. But over the years, between packed lunchboxes, picky eaters, and after-school meltdowns, I found joy in creating recipes that work for real families—like yours.

Our kitchen isn’t fancy. The walls are lined with handprints, crayon art, and a clock that always seems to tick too fast. But it’s where the magic happens—the kind that smells like baked pasta, cinnamon toast, or a five-minute dinner that somehow wins everyone’s hearts.

That’s why I created howtocookeasily.com—a space for busy moms, dads, students, and anyone who just wants to eat well without the stress. Here, you’ll find:

Fast, family-friendly recipes
Easy cooking techniques
Meal ideas kids actually eat
And honest stories from one home cook to another.

So whether you’re juggling homework and dinner prep or just trying to cook something that doesn’t come from a box, you’re in the right place. I’ve burned things, I’ve cried over gravy, and I’ve also made some pretty amazing meals. Let’s do this together.

Welcome to my kitchen. ❤️
