About

Hi, I’m Lily Anderson,

Hi, I’m Lily Anderson, the founder of Cool Cooking Recipes! I’m all about making cooking approachable, fun, and—you guessed it—cool for everyone from kitchen newbies to seasoned home chefs.

My journey into the culinary world began rather unexpectedly. After a video of me preparing a “kitchen disaster recovery meal” went viral on social media five years ago, I discovered that my relaxed approach to cooking resonated with people tired of perfectionist food culture. With a background in graphic design and a love for experimentation, I’ve created a cooking platform that emphasizes creativity and enjoyment over rigid rules.

From Kitchen Chaos to Culinary Cool – Simple Recipes


WHat you can find in coolcookingrecipes.COM ?

At Cool Cooking Recipes, you’ll find visually striking dishes with unexpected flavor combinations, modern twists on classics, and recipes that embrace shortcuts without sacrificing quality. I’m known for my color-coded difficulty system and step-by-step visual guides that make even complex techniques accessible to everyone.

When I’m not in the kitchen or behind the camera, I’m collecting vintage cookbooks, roller skating, or hunting down new ingredients at specialty markets. Join me in making cooking the coolest part of your day!
