Hi, I’m Sandi — and I’m so happy you’re here!
I’m passionate about researching, developing, and perfecting sweet, simple, from-scratch recipes to share with you. Thanks for stopping by Julienne Recipes — my cozy little corner of the internet!
Let me take you back to where my love for cooking truly began.
I grew up in a peaceful, charming town in America, where the open skies always felt full of endless possibility.
As an only child, I spent much of my time at my grandma’s house next door — a place overflowing with warmth, life, and the vibrant colors of her flourishing garden. The air was always rich with the scent of fresh herbs, blooming flowers, and sun-ripened fruit. Her strawberries, especially, had a magic of their own — sweet, juicy, and kissed by sunshine. They sparked my lifelong passion for using fresh, wholesome ingredients.
But the heart of it all was Grandma’s kitchen.
It was her sanctuary — and soon became mine, too. With her creativity and care, she could turn the simplest pantry staples into something unforgettable. Her pies, cookies, and soul-warming meals drew in friends and neighbors, filling the house with love, laughter, and the irresistible scent of home-cooked magic.
That’s where my journey with food began — and where Julienne Recipes was born.
As a child, I would sit for hours, watching my grandma work her magic in the kitchen—measuring, mixing, and turning simple ingredients into something extraordinary. I dreamed of the day I could be just like her.
By the time I turned 18, I was spending countless hours experimenting with recipes, determined to make her proud. But those moments in the kitchen weren’t just about learning to cook—they taught me how food can bring people together, spark joy, and create memories that last a lifetime.
Now, at 34, even though my grandma is no longer with us, I carry her spirit with me in every dish I make. This blog, Julienne Recipes, is my way of honoring her legacy—sharing the love, warmth, and joy she poured into every meal with people around the world.
When I’m not in the kitchen, you’ll probably find me curled up with a hot cup of coffee, dreaming up new recipes—many inspired by her favorite ingredient: strawberries! 🍓
My greatest hope is that the recipes you find here bring comfort, connection, and a little bit of magic to your home—just like my grandma’s always did.
