Welcome to Alissa Recipes!
Hi, I’m Alissa Savoldelli, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m the recipe developer, food lover, and everyday home cook behind Alissa Recipes. Cooking isn’t just something I do—it’s part of who I am. It’s how I relax, how I express creativity, and most importantly, how I connect with the people I love.
This website is a reflection of that journey—my hope is that when you’re here, you feel inspired, supported, and excited to get into the kitchen. Whether you’re cooking your very first meal or just looking for a fresh idea to spice up dinner tonight, you’ll find something here that’s made with heart.
How It All Began
From the time I could hold a spoon, I was curious about what was happening in the kitchen. I remember standing beside my mom as she stirred sauces or kneaded dough, asking a hundred questions and trying to mimic her every move. Our family kitchen was always full of warmth, wonderful smells, and the comforting sounds of chopping, sizzling, and laughter. It was in those everyday moments that my love for cooking was born.
As I grew older, that spark turned into a deep passion. I began to explore cookbooks, try new ingredients, and eventually create recipes of my own. I wasn’t professionally trained, but I learned through experience, experimentation, and a lot of joy (and a few kitchen disasters!). I discovered that cooking didn’t have to be intimidating—it could be simple, joyful, and deeply satisfying.
The Philosophy Behind Alissa Recipes
At Alissa Recipes, my mission is simple: to help you create food that brings people together. I believe good food should be accessible to everyone. That means using everyday ingredients, straightforward techniques, and no-fuss instructions that anyone can follow.
You don’t need to be a gourmet chef to make meals that are impressive, comforting, or nourishing—you just need a little guidance and inspiration. That’s what I’m here for. Whether you’re short on time, cooking on a budget, or just looking for something new, my recipes are designed to work for real life.

Why I Created Alissa Recipes
I started this blog with a simple goal: to share the joy of cooking with others. I know how good it feels to put a home-cooked meal on the table, to see someone take that first bite and smile. It’s powerful. Food has a way of bringing people together, starting conversations, and creating memories—and I wanted to be part of that experience for others.
