My mission is simple: to help home cooks create delicious dishes that bring joy to everyday life, without complicated steps or intimidating techniques.
My Story: A Canadian Heart, A Home Cook’s Journey
I grew up in Canada, where my childhood was shaped by snowy mornings, maple-scented treats, and the comforting sounds of family cooking. I was the kid who climbed onto a chair just to peek into a simmering pot, convinced that every bubbling sound was a tiny miracle. I never attended culinary school; instead, I learned by experimenting in tiny apartments, shared kitchens, and eventually a little sunlit space I now proudly call my home kitchen.
Cooking wasn’t something that came with strict rules for me, it was more like an invitation to taste, test, stumble, and try again. Some of my best lessons came from recipes that didn’t turn out how I expected. Those moments taught me that cooking doesn’t have to be perfect to be meaningful. It just has to be honest.
As I shared more of my recipes, I realized how much joy I found in helping home cooks feel capable and inspired. That’s how Recipes by Lira came to life, first as a hobby, then as a passion, and now as a welcoming community of people who love good food made with heart.
