About Maya & Leo & Cosy Home Recipes : Easy, Family-Friendly Recipes

Hey there!

We’re Maya & Leo

Welcome to Cosy Home Recipes—a little corner of the internet where comfort food meets real life. We cook for busy days, slow weekends, and everything in between, with recipes that feel like home from the first bite.

Cozy, dependable recipes Simple ingredients Big, warm flavors

Our story

Cosy Home Recipes started with a small habit: writing down the meals that made us pause, look at each other, and say, “Okay… we need to make this again.”

Over time, those scribbled notes turned into a collection of go-to dinners, weekend bakes, and “let’s use what we have” pantry wins—tested, tweaked, and repeated until they became truly share-worthy.

Today, this blog is our way of passing those recipes forward—so you can cook something comforting, even on the busiest night, and feel proud of what lands on your table.

Maya

Recipe developer • Cozy-food maximalist • Keeper of the “notes & tweaks”

Maya is the one who turns everyday ingredients into “how is this so good?” meals. She loves building flavor gently: a good sauté, a smart spice, a sauce you’ll want to swipe with bread.

  • Cooking style: Comfort-first, always.
  • Signature move: Making leftovers taste even better the next day.
  • Current obsession: Creamy soups, oven trays, and anything served warm.

Leo is all about texture and balance—golden edges, fresh herbs, and that final pinch of salt that makes everything pop. He tests, retests, and insists on clear steps so recipes feel calm to cook.

  • Cooking style: Simple steps, strong results.
  • Signature move: Getting things perfectly crisp without overcomplicating.
  • Current obsession: Roasted veggies, pan sauces, and cozy bowls.

Fun facts

  • We test recipes like a team sport: one cooks, one notes, both taste.
  • Our favorite kitchen tool is a simple sheet pan (it never lets us down).
  • We believe “cozy” is a flavor—usually buttery, gently spiced, and served warm.
  • If a recipe needs a special gadget, we’ll always offer an easier option.
