Nora & Nicolas – The Dalim Family
Simple Recipes. Real Moments. From Our Kitchen to Yours.
Welcome to My Recipes Made: Where Cooking Meets Innovation
We’re Nora and Nicolas, a family based in the U.S. who believes that food isn’t just about what’s on your plate, it’s about connection, comfort, and creativity.
In our home, the kitchen is the warmest place. It’s where we share stories, test new ideas, clean up together, and enjoy meals that nourish both the body and the heart.
Our Family Kitchen Story
Nora has always found joy in cooking, but when our oldest daughter left for college, everything changed. To help her feel more independent (and eat better than instant noodles!), Nora started writing down simple, flavorful recipes.
These recipes had to be:
- Easy to follow
- Made with what we already had in the pantry
- And quick enough to fit between school runs, work, and everything in between
Pretty soon, we realized this wasn’t just about us, it could help other families too.
Why We Created My Recipes Made
We saw that so many people were overwhelmed by complicated cooking blogs or expensive ingredients. So we decided to do things differently.
Our goal?
Help families make real meals, with real ingredients, in real life, even when things are messy or busy.
We created My Recipes Made for:
- Parents with kids
- College students cooking solo
- Anyone looking for time-saving ideas that don’t sacrifice taste
