About
Hi there! My name is Natasha Kravchuk. My handsome husband, Vadim, and I started Natasha’s Kitchen in 2009 and develop recipes and recipe videos full time together.
I come from a family of fantastic cooks and I’m here to share generations of recipes that are homey, fresh, healthy, family-friendly, authentic, and adventurous. Most importantly, our recipes taste great and you can trust that they actually work.
My Family:
My parents came to the US as refugees from Ukraine when I was 4 years old. They brought 5 tiny girls and had nothing but a stack of suitcases. They didn’t know the language, but worked hard and achieved the American dream. Watch the TV News Segment about our incredible story.
Growing up, I used to be so shy I thought no one would marry me until my husband came along and swept me off my feet (true story). I married my wonderful husband Vadim over 16 years ago. We are blessed with two children. Every recipe is thoroughly tested and approved by each of us and is often critiqued by relatives and friends. We only post the recipes we love and make over and over.
We live in Idaho, “Ida-who?” Potatoes, people, potatoes! Our family attends Life Church Boise. We strive to walk in love and live our lives by the word of God and the life of Jesus.
My Background:
We’re so thankful to be full-time foodies and recipe developers. We’re living our dream because of you and I can’t thank you enough! I draw on all of my past experience which make me the recipe developer, video creator, photographer, writer, and business owner that I am today. We set the bar high so you can expect great recipes and videos here. God has made all of my past experiences work for my good.
The ‘Resume’:
- Starting as a teen, I worked for 7 years as a business intern (my most valuable ‘education’).
- Earned my bachelors degree in Business (long story)
- Worked as a Realtor for 4 years during which I had an early mid-life crisis and cried a lot (let’s just say it wasn’t for me).
- Second Bachelor’s degree in Nursing and worked as an RN in telemetry (shorter story, but still long).
- Blogging since 2009
So, I’m a wife, mom, food blogger, video creator, photographer, writer, influencer, social media boss, entrepreneur, and worship leader. If I were a sandwich, I’d be a chicken bacon avocado on focaccia.
About Natasha’s Kitchen:
I started this food and family blog in 2009 as a way to share favorite recipes and events with family and friends. It has grown much larger than I could have imagined with about 1,000 recipes and about 7 Million hungry visitors per month. In April 2020, we passed 1,000,000 subscribers on Youtube and our channel is growing fast.
My goal with Natasha’s Kitchen is for you to really discover and fall in love with cooking and find many new favorite recipes your family will love. The ingredients we use are simple and easily accessible; not overly hoity-toity. My motto: if you can read (a well-written, tested and trusted recipe), you can cook.
This is a personal website and all of the recipes are tested and approved by my family. All of the photography is done by myself and I’m the one showing up in our videos. My husband edits the photos and videos (and he’s the videographer single-handedly running 3 cameras at once).
Much of the recipes I share come from my Mom and Mother-in-law, family, friends, and experience in the kitchen. I am so thankful to have such amazing people in my life who generously share their rich knowledge of cooking.
How I got Started Cooking:
To be completely honest, I wasn’t always excited about cooking. When I got married in 2003, it became a necessity – “must eat to live” and Mom wasn’t doing the cooking anymore. We had a lot of frozen meals and ate out too much in the first year of our marriage. I had a free summer (and decided I would improve my cooking skills so we could live and eat healthier.
I dove into cookbook after cookbook and plundered my mom’s recipe books. I was at the library all the time bringing home piles of cookbooks; I was hooked! I even read my mother’s cooking textbook from her college days (Mom completed her culinary program when we moved to the US). I had discovered the joy of cooking. Within a few months, my husband and I each lost weight just from cooking more at home. Now I can’t stop cooking and thinking about cooking and dreaming about cooking… I was born for this!
My recipe collection continues to grow. I love to try new recipes and will share my favorites with you. I hope you enjoy this blog and find recipes that will become your family favorites as well.
Get Featured: If you would like your recipe featured on this site, email it to me by clicking here (warning: spammers will get hit in the face with unripe avocados).

Thank you for that feedback and suggestion Lauren! We do plan on making more Instant Pot recipes.
Hi I am a huge fan of your cooking I am so looking forward to new videos

Hi Natasha, do you happen to have a chocolate tres leches recipe? Thanks
Hi Margie, I do not have a chocolate Tres Leches cake at this time however, several of our readers added cocoa to our Tres Leches cake and loved it. I recommend reading through the recipe comments for details.
Love your videos but don’t see anything for veal. Would you do a veal recipe? One without flour
Hi Rudina, thank you for that suggestion. Adding it to our list.
Are you working on a cookbook? Your recipes are easy and delicious. Would love that!!!!
Hello Valerie, thank you. I am working on a cookbook right now, I’ll make sure to share it with you all when it’s ready!
Hi Natasha! You are my go-to website for dinner ideas or desserts. Everything on your website is amazing and you have inspired me to be a better cook in my kitchen. I enjoy cooking meals for my family and your recipes are always a big hit!! Please write a recipe book, I would be first in line. Or an App since I’m always checking your website for new recipes!! – an App would be much easier 🙂
That is so nice of you, thank you for your good comments and feedback Raffaella. I am currently working on a cookbook, I’ll shareit with you all when it’s ready.
Love your website and recipes Natasha. Watched ur pantry video and would like to find the name plates for all the baskets. Can you please let me know. Couldn’t find on website.

Hi. I was wondering if you ever tried adding potatoes to your breakfast burritos.
Hi Carol, I have not but I bet that would work! If you experiment I would love to know how you like that.
Hi Natasha, love your recipes. Do you have home made vanilla extract without vodka? Any alternative for vodka, as I am Muslim and have to avoid that.
Hello Romana, thank you! I don’t have a vanilla extract recipe without vodka and I haven’t tried that yet.
Hi Natasha,
I’m from Sherwood Park, Alberta Canada. I just want to say I really enjoy your cooking videos. Your receipes are good, you make it fun to cook. I made the egg rolls with my 2 teen grandsons yesterday. Good Job. Stay safe and keep cooking Natasha.
Lots of thank yous to you and your family.
Thank you so much, Elaine. I’m happy to hear that your grandsons loved the egg rolls!
I love your recipes and videos! And I always recommend your site to friends. Your family is precious.
Awww that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me! I’m all smiles
I’m so thankful for your recipes and videos! My 3 year old son asks every day “can we watch a Ma-tasha please?” and of course I can’t resist. We’ve been in lockdown for a while and have just moved overseas which resulted in extra lockdown and higher restrictions for my sweet little boy but when we get done watching your clips, he looks at me and ask “can we make THAT one next time?!” and of course, I can’t resist 🙂
So thank you for making this time go by a little easier, with a little more love, a little more joy and a lot more good food!!!
Your son is so adorable. Please give him my virtual hugs, thanks to you both for always watching my videos. I hope you will both enjoy every recipe that you try!
Hi Natasha,
I’ve been receiving several friend requests on Facebook from You and wanted to ensure it’s really from you (legitimate). You see, I accepted your friend request some time ago but keep receiving along with give away of cash and even a car.
It is not from me, unfortunately, there are a lot of fake accounts circulating online especially on Facebook. I recommend reporting those scammers on Facebook so the page can be disabled right away. Stay safe!
I made the Autumn salad and cooked the chicken spinach lasagne and they were amazing. My family & friends loved them!! Thanks tash
You’re very welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed this recipe!
Hi Natasha,
I love your site. I make so many of your recipes. And I love your kitchen!! I went to your shopping section for the spice drawer organizer and the stainless steel?? grills for the bottom of the sink, but could not find them. Can you help me?
I’m so glad you’re enjoying our recipes, Sue! You can find our favorite tools in our Amazon Affiliate Shop HERE or linked in the recipes.
Hi Natasha, I just want to say that I absolutely adore all your recipes. Everyone of them seems to be a hit with my family. When I mention that I’m doing one of your recipes for dinner, it is always met with a resounding YES!! You have certainly taught this old dog some really innovative and new tricks. I rave about your website to all my friends. Thankyou!
Awww that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me! I’m all smiles
Hello Natasha was looking at your cuisine visit and saw all of your spices. Many are Kirkland and saw a Montreal mix spice. Were you from Montreal or Toronto originally
Have a great day did a few of your recipes.
Hi Dominic, we are not from Montreal. It is the line of spices sold at our local Costco and we definitely like it. I hope you have a wonderful day also.
i cooked the spinach lasagna today
it was a hit
i will make it again
I’m so glad to hear that. Thank you for your good feedback!
Natasha,
I just wanted you to know that I made your Apple Turnovers this afternoon. As I was making them, they didn’t look as good as yours. I cut the dough crooked and thought I put too much filling in a couple.
Well when they came out of the oven. OMG…they looked like I bought them at a bakery.
I didn’t have any confectioners sugar for the icing but they are still good. I used a couple of Honey Crisp apples I had so they are sweeter than the Granny Smiths.
My husband loves them.
This is definitely a keeper recipe. I enjoying watching your cooking videos.
That is so awesome! I am so glad that it was successful and you loved the end result. Thanks for sharing your great comments and feedback with us. I hope you love every recipe that you try!
Natasha, when you made the chicken avocado salad you used a blue tong that had holes in it for turning the chicken. Can you tell me where I could order those tongs. Thank you for taking the time to answer my request. Loving your recipes!
Hi Mary Lou, you can find our favorite tools in our Amazon Affiliate shop HERE. I hope this is helpful!
Would like to know where you buy your vanilla beans?
Hi Maria, we buy these vanilla beans from Amazon.
Natasha,
I found you on Facebook a month ago while in the ICU recovering. I am still trying to recover but watch you daily. Keep the videos coming, you are a smiling face to this tired nurse that is having trouble breathing.
Hi Melinda, blessings over you for a quick recovery!
Hi Natasha!
Love cooking your recipes, absolutely the best. Just curious, do you have a cookbook printed?
Thank you so much, Dana. I don’t have a cookbook yet but I am working on it. I’ll be sure to share it with you all when it’s ready.
Hello Natasha, I love following you and trying your recipes, Quick question, Do you sell your Natashas Kitchen Apron separately?
Thanks for your support, Jerry. Not at this time but later in the future we might!
Hi Natasha! I’ve never considered myself to be a gourmet cook, however since the Pandemic started and I needed to eat at home more, my mother and I have been experimenting with your recipes. We have never been let down on anything that we try! They are all so full of flavor and just amazing. We’ve tried so many of your recipes and still have many more to try. My favorite so far is the shrimp alfredo, we add green onions instead of parsley and use linguini noodles. Thank you for being a cooking inspiration!
Thank you so much for your kind words and awesome feedback, Erika. It helps inspire me too, to get better and create more content. We appreciate it!
Hi I’m Shailinia, tried your banana bread. It was great. Just wanted to know how many gms is one cup of flour,as there are different sizes of cups. Thanks and God bless
Hello Shalinia, this Ingredient Weight Chart can be useful.
Dear Natasha,
I have been hiding vegetables from my kids in my dishes for years. One solution is to take the KitchenAid sheet noodle cutter attachment to make sweet potatoes or squash flat noodles to alternate with homemade lasagna noodles (you can even throw spinach, etc… in the pasta noodles. I alternate the pasta layers with the sweet potato &/or squash noodle layers when I make lasagne or any other dish with tomato or lots of cheese to mask it. Or, chicken Cordon Blue with spinach tucked in there…
You get the idea. You could probably do a whole segment on dishes that hide vegetables from youngsters. ;-P
Thanks for your tips and suggestions for us, Tessa. Awesome ideas! Yes, that’s a good video and topic to discuss in one of our future recipes.
I am from Mumbai, India and follow your recipes. The most favourite from your list is the Philly Cheese Steak. Had it when I was in Philadelphia, US to meet my sister.
I understand you are a follower of Christ. I am a believer too.
You have so much opportunity not only to share recipes but also the love of Christ. Love you Natasha.
It’s so nice to meet you and thank you so much for writing in. I love that we have our faith in common.
I am about to make your cupcakes and your vanilla cake, I have been super excited! I know it will turn out great!
Hi Natasha, I have recently stumbled across your videos on YouTube. I am a Chef by trade and I have taken my skill to YouTube. I am also taking a video editing course to improve my video skills. In your Chicken Lasagna video there is a transition where you smash the onion and it becomes chopped. I would love to learn how to edit this. would you be able to tell me how this is preformed? It would be much appreciated. Oh ya by the way I love the format and style that you have. your videos are on my hit list every week for sure.
Hi Bryan, thank you for that sweet compliment. Our video editor (my husband) does all of that so I’m not sure where to begin explaining that. He learned everything he knows through youtube tutorials and practice using the Final Cut Pro X program for editing. I hope that helps.
I just made the pumpkin cheesecake recipe. Can I freeze it?
Hi April, we haven’t tried freezing it but that should work well.
Do you have any gluten free and low carb recipes?
Hello Tish, you can check out my Almond Cake recipe which is gluten-free.
We love peach fried pies and I was wondering if you could substitute peach for the apples in the apple turnover recipe.
Hello Dianne, I haven’t tried that yet to advise but I imagine it might work. If you do an experiment, please share with us how it goes.
Hi Natasha
Please recommed a frying pan.
My eggs, fish etc stick to my frying pan.
I noticed you used a stainless steel frying pan in the egg roll video.
Do you recommend this stainless steel frying pan and where can I buy it. Is it good for frying eggs, fish etc
Thank You
Hello Vilma. You can see the kitchen tools that I use here in my Amazon affiliate shop.
No Chile recipes??
Tried the beef stew, it was good.
Tried the chicken lasagna and it was also good.
I’m glad you loved those recipes, Don. I’ll take note of your suggestion!
Dear Natasha, If we were friends and I became sick what meal would you prepare to bring for me and my family? What would you take into consideration?
Patrick
P.S. Your baked ziti fits the bill nicely!
Hello Patrick, I usually make chicken noodle soup when someone in our family is feeling under the weather.
I have been looking for a recipe for chili that is more broth not thick, yours looks great and I have made a lot of your recipes( chicken fritters with aioli sauce rocks). I have a picky husband, my question. Will it make much difference if I leave out carrot and the green pepper?
Hi Melody, I think that will still work fine. You might replace those with more of the rest of the ingredients so it doesn’t end up too thin.
As an older gentleman (mid 70’s) I love your recipes and your videos. I have tried a few but I save 90% of them for later reference. You are a delight to watch and learn from, thanks Natasha, you’re the best
I’m so inspired reading your review. Thank you!
I have got a 2 quart Dutch oven. Have you any recipes for a small one? Thank you for your help.
Hi Betty! Most of our dutch ovens are 6 quarts however our recipes are adjustable to a smaller scale by using the recipe slider on our printable recipe card that comes with each recipe.
Natasha, good to see you and follow your recipes. You are very good At what you do. Keep it up.
Thank you and yes, will surely do!
Just printed your Tres Leches Cake recipe. Congratulations on having a site where finding and printing a recipe is super easy! No pop up adds or hard to find recipes. I will definitely be trying a LOT of your recipes.
Thanks so much!
Thank you, Barb. I hope you love every recipe that you try!

Hello Nadia, so great to hear from you and thank you so much for your nice words and good feedback. It helps inspire me to do better and create more content. Sorry to hear that you had to quit, I’m sure you can bounce back when you’re ready. Take care and stay safe!
Je suis une fan de votre site et je réalise plusieurs de vos recettes qui sont excellente. Je demeure à Québec!

I would love to have more AIR FRYING recipes on your website
Healthy food for Air fryer
Thank you so much for that suggestion, Sylvain! Adding it to my list!
Thank you Natasha! I am new to your site and got here by following the Facebook “rabbit trail”.
So refreshing to see your open proclamation of following the word of God and Jesus.
I am a career chef that recently started doing videos with my son Tytus. Tytus is 10 and has a real interest in videoing things, tech stuff, and becoming a “Chef” like dad. I felt this would be a great opportunity to research and learn with him. We are in the beginning stages and have a few videos on Facebook and Youtube. I have much respect for what you do because outside of being a career chef this is all new to me. Sure we have watched tons of food shows and I have been doing research on Youtube but it’s not the same is it? And I am not particularly skinny or young-looking. LOL
We are trying to build a structure that works great and that we are both comfortable with it. I don’t want this to be stressful for him (or me) BUT at the same time, we would hope it would at least be useful and/or entertaining. We are slowly figuring it out and are making some small purchases to “up our game”. This week we’ll get a shotgun mic to better the sound…and hopefully some better lighting in the future. Right now we are using some economically priced (cheap) telescoping camera stands, a pixel 3 phone, and some strategically placed lighting. Or not. LOL
Let us know if you have any more suggestions or have a blog or video somewhere where you explain your process, tips, or equipment y’all use. Basically any “how-to” information on the making and growing of the channel.
And once again, Thank You!
Sounds like an awesome and fun plan! Here are some tips that can hopefully help. Wishing you all the best!
Thank you! I will be checking all these out. I thought you probably had a page for it. I just needed to look harder. Thanks for making it easy and giving me the link!
Thank you so much for all recipes, Natasha!
Very easy to follow and easy to complete.
When I need some new inspiration and nice twist for my old native recipes I always come here and always find what I was looking for!
That’s so great Inna! Thank you for sharing your thoughtful review!

You have a beautiful success story Natasha. God is so good to make all your dreams come true. How great is He! I admire people like you who are so devoted to your family, who strives to be the best and most of all who puts God in the center of your life. You have the whole package. So proud of you! God bless and cheers to many many more years of success! -Sheila
ooops..and I forget to mention that you have the best recipes ever. I had friends over last weekend and it was all of your recipes! I made your glazed ham, lasagna, greek salad, bruchetta and Tres Leches. My friends enjoyed it so much!!! Thank you thank you for all your beautiful recipes!!! Love them all!!
Hello Sheila, thank you so much for your kind words and feedback. It helps inspire me to do better and create more content. I hope that you will love every recipe that you try!
I just love your recipes.. I just made your Cream Puffs and they are cooling on the rack right now. I tried the Chicken Madeira the other night and my husband (who does most of the cooking) said it was the best he’s ever tasted. I have your video playing while I try your recipes. Thank you for being my cooking assistant.
Thanks for your great comments and feedback, Joanne. I hope you and your husband will love every recipe that you will try!
I am trying to make your juicy meatballs and I put way too much water. What can add to make it the right consistency?
1 put 2/3 of 2 cups instead of 2/3 of 1 cup.
HELP!!
If the water is pooling at the top, I would dab it out with paper towels then add some bread crumbs to help the meatballs form.
Hi Natasha. Love your recipes and videos. I was wondering if your website has a place where we can personally store recipes from your site that we use again and again. Just a friendly suggestion.
Thanks for your suggestion, Linda. However, we don’t have that feature on our site yet but we’ll take note of that.
I do not have a smoker so how can I get the same results for the ribs they look so delicious I am 88 years old and I still love to cook I love trying your recipes thank you for all your hard work and giving us this site
Hi Gloria, You would need a smoker for this recipe. If you have an instant pot, we have another great Instant Pot Ribs Recipe, but it is very different from classic smoked ribs although still tasty.
Hi Natasha….can you include “STICKY DATE PUDDING” in your collection please…
Thank you for that suggestion, Rachelle! We will add that to our list!
Hi Natasha!
I love your website!
I was wondering if you could make a subsection for all the Russian/Ukranian foods you have posted? I am learning to cook those foods
Hi Audrey, we have a section for that. You can go to Recipes > By category > By cuisine, at the top of our site. You can find our Russian & Ukrainian recipes HERE.
Hi Natasha, I just love your recipes. So easy to follow. I am new to this site. Could you please tell me where I can buy those white square shallow dishes you use in making the chicken parmesan recipe please. They look great for egg, flour and breadcrumbs
Hi Noeleen, we love those pans for recipes that require layers of dredging. You can find them in our Amazon Shop HERE.
Hi Natasha!
I am recently single and learning to improve my cooking skills. Your recipes are great and the videos make the task of cooking seem so easy and possible. Your humor is great and makes learning really fun.

So glad to hear you and your husband are enjoying the recipes!
Hi Natasha, I used your recipe for baked salmon on some basa fish. It was absolutely the best recipe. Will be making it at least once a week from now on. Love your blogs, love your sense of humour too.
Sounds like you found a new favorite! That’s so great Joanne!
Your Brownie recipe is the best. I have tried so many other recipes and yours is the absolute best. My family and grandkids love it very much. Your recipe will be the 5 star for the rest of my life. Thank you

Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for your great comments and feedback! Your suggestion is noted, however, I cannot guarantee that I can always provide alternative vegan-friendly substitutes but I’ll take note of that.
Natasha’s recipes and cooking videos are the best I have ever seen.
That is so nice of you, thank you so much, Beverly!

Hi Natasha. I love your videos and recipes! Do you have a recipe for an Asian noodle salad? I’ve had a delicious noodle salad from Houston’s restaurant and it has mango, mint, steak, long noodles and some other ingredients I can’t remember but it’s delicious. Hopefully you can help!
Hi Angelina, that sounds delicious! We have an Asian chopped salad here and some of our favorite Asian recipes here.
Thank you! I’ll try it out.
Do I have to use sour cream and light olive oil to make the blue berry lemon muffin
HI Nadine, I have used greek yogurt before but I enjoyed the results more with the recipe as written.
So far I have tried two of your recipes… breakfast quesadillas and (last night) Chicken Tetrazzini. I have the fussiest kids on the planet, and they LOVED both dishes. I’m hooked on your style of cooking (nothing crazy- ingredients are mostly what we have on hand, and healthy, real food that kids will eat). Thank you! Looking forward to trying many more!
Yay! I’m so happy you’re enjoying our recipes, Stephanie! That’s so great!
i have tried many of your recipes, with most complete success. i really love the way you simplify the recipes so that as a beginner i can be successful. thanks Charlie
Aww that’s so great! Thank you so much for sharing that with me!
Hi, Natasha. How are you? I hope you and your family will always stay well and happy. I just wanted to let you know that it would be a great idea if you make a video red velvet cake. I want to make one soon so it’s better to follow your recipe. Hope you gain more subscribers. God bless you and your family, Natasha. Stay safe.
Hi and thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I have that recipe on my to-do list.
Hi, I just love your videos and recipes. God bless you and your family
Thank you so much, Ray. Blessings to you and your family as well.

Natasha,
I haven’t seen anyone comment on this before, but I truly appreciate you listing the nutrition information on your recipes. I have to watch my salt intake, so having that information is very helpful. Thank you so much – love the recipes!
Jack
You are so welcome, Jack, and totally agree. It is important to also know the nutrition info for each recipe.
You bring a lot of life to the screen with your brilliant sense of humour, and your videos are not just recipes but wonderful performances! That apart, your recipes are informative and very well-explained for a layperson. Even though I am a vegetarian, I enjoy watching your non-vegetarian recipes only because of you! This is probably the first time I have spent time looking at the biography of a food video blogger on Facebook! But I really do enjoy your recipes and your videos and the energy you bring to the screen very much. Looking forward to more!
You’re so nice! Thank you for this wonderful compliment and feedback!
I love your whimsical sense of humor and your food is amazing. I love to cook and like to try out different recipes; and so far you are on the mark. I was wondering if you are ever planning to write a cookbook, bc I for one would buy it. What I like the most is that the recipes are not hard to do.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I am working on a cookbook, it’s taking a while for me to complete it though but I will definitely share it with everyone when it is ready.
Thank you for all of your wonderful recipes and lively videos! My bf admires everything you do and make. You’ve turned him into a passionate cook. We call your evening recipe searches our “food-porn”. Keep it coming!
You are most welcome. I hope both of you will love the recipe that you try!
Hi Natasha! I want to make your Instant Pot White Chicken Chili recipe tonight but forgot to take the frozen chicken breasts out of the freezer, last night. I took them out and put them in the fridge as soon as I remembered—about 10am but they are still somewhat frozen. Do I need to adjust the cooking time to compensate?
Hi Peggy, several of our readers have reported great results using frozen chicken. You may need to add a few extra minutes to the time and it should work.
Thanks for the wonderful pizza crust recipe. Dad has stature in the kitchen now!
One small suggestion. Instead of covering the containers with plastic wrap, may I suggest using tight lids instead. It works for me, and it would cut down in the plastic in our trash.
By the way, my wife is a nurse also and a wonderful cook.
Keep going and thanks again.
Thank you so much for that suggestion, Shanker! I’m happy you’re enjoying our recipe – that pizza recipe is so popular right now!
Hi, Natasha. How long it took you to make the vanilla cake?
Hi Syarvin, We have the time, start to finish listed on the recipe card of each recipe.
Hi, Natasha. How are you? I hope you and your family always stay well and blessed. I watched your very recent video and that is poached eggs. That was a really wonderful recipe and….by the way, I’m going to make vanilla cake today. I hope it won’t go wrong and I know it wouldn’t because the recipe was given by you. Anyway, I hope that you gain more and more subscribers. God bless you and your family. Stay safe, Natasha.
I hope you love the vanilla cake recipe Syarvin! Thank you for sharing this great review with me!
Hello Natasha….. when did you moved into your white kitchen? What year?
Hi Sarahy, we have been here for a couple of years now.
Hi Natasha ,
I´m from Mexico, thank you to sharing us your recipes, sincerly I´m not a very good cooker :(, but I really loves follow your recipes. My daughter loves the chocolate chips cookies, and it is our favorite recipe.
Lets get started!!
Aww that’s the best Paty! I hope you love our recipes!
Hi Natasha,
I’m so glad and thankful for you and your recipe’s. My family and I moved from Russia when I was 6 and I love and crave a lot of the foods that we grew up on. So I alway’s turn to your blog and website when I cannot recall what a specific dish calls for and you never fail to remind me! Thank you so much!!!
Awww that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me Olya! I’m all smiles!
Hi Natasha, I was wondering what food scale you use and where can I purchase it?
Thank you for your many recipes.
Mary
Hi Mary! We have our favorite kitchen tools including the food scale we use in our Amazon Shop HERE!
Hi Natasha,
I frequent your website alot. lots of great recipes. I wanted to know if you had any diabetes friendly recipes? or any of your recipes that can be converted with using spelt flour instead of regular flour.
Hi Anni, most of our recipes have ingredients that our readers substitute. If you are looking at a specific recipe I recommend reading through our comments section.
following you ONLY because you are a follower of Jesus Christ…so many cooks but so few dishwashers…May the Lord of Host’s Bless you!
Thank you! Bless you too.
Would love if you had a website to be able to save your recipes to a recipe box.
PS LOVE everything you make!
Also, would love to see some Air Fryer recopies!
Thank you, Pauline! We love Air Fryer recipes! Adding that to our list!
I’m so glad you’re enjoying our recipes, Pauline! Thank you so much for that suggestion!
Dear Natasha, do you have a recipe for making sweetened walnuts with honey or blue agave instead of sugar? I only saw your sugar recipe, “5 Minute Candied Walnuts”, posted January 11, 2014. I’m wondering if I were to use honey or agave, with melted butter and place the coated walnuts in the oven on parchment paper, if that might work. If you think it’s worth trying, do you recommend 350 degrees? I was especially blessed to read that you’re a sister in Christ! “Foodwise,” one of the joys we’ll experience in Eternity with our LORD is the “wedding feast” (Rev. 19:9) and the Tree of Life’s fruit (Rev. 22:1,2)! Love, Joanie
Hi Joan, I haven’t tested those substitutions or baking. I think baking would be tough since the sugar wouldn’t really coat the nuts but pool the bottom of the baking dish. We have a roasted nuts recipe that is very good. It is so wonderful to meet you also!
Hi love your recipes and presentation style. I want to try them all! A book would be brilliant.
Thank you, Judith. I am currently working on a cookbook but it may take some time before it gets completed.
Hello,
Love your channel. There is something about you, that makes people smile and want to listen to you.
Here is a link to put out your own cookbook, wholesale $5 resale whatever.

Natasha, I have made several of your recipes and can honestly say my family has loved them all. All of the fresh salad recipes have been particularly handy during this hot California summer. Keep up the good work, you’re the best. God bless you and yours
Thank you so much for sharing that with us, Steve. It’s so great to hear that your family has enjoyed the recipes that you tried!
Natasha,
We have thoroughly enjoyed all your Russian/Ukrainian recipes to say nothing of every other recipe we have tried. We would love to try your version of Щи, if you have a recipe. Thank you!
Hi Eden! Thank you so much for that suggestion! We will add it to our list!
I liked the recipe very much. But using the website proved so cumbersome because of so many ads that I was tempted to not even finish the recipe. Kept reloading and reloading.
Hi Terri. Thank you for sharing your concerns and feedback. The only way we can continue providing free recipes is by having ads on our site so we are not able to remove those at this time. We find that most people would rather see the ads than pay to see the recipes. But we will definitely take note of your feedback and use it to improve our website.
I appreciate your feedback and I hope you love every recipe you try.
Hi Natashas, I love the Pierogi recipes but I would like to know how to a strawberry filling? Love all your recipes.
Thanks Kerry. Strawberry filling for what recipe? You can also check out this Strawberry Sauce recipe in my website.
The only thing missing is nutritional summary with each recipe. This summary is so critical when watching your calories, sugar intake, salt intake, etc.
Hi Gtc, we add nutritional information with each recipe down by the printable recipe card including serving size. Some of our older recipes do not have that but we are slowly working through all of our recipes to add nutrition info but it is a time-consuming process as they have to be added one at a time. Thank you for being patient.
Hi Natasha,
I am new to your site and enjoying the recipes I see on the videos on facebook. I love cooking ,always made home dinners. I am now retired , family grown,but I still enjoy everyday cooking good easy healthy meals, Love watching you make it look so easy. especially like the chicken Lazagna with creamy white sauce. delicious. send me more recipes.
Awww that’s the best! Thank you so much for sharing that with me! Will do! We post new recipes each week!
Hi Natasha,
Soft Choc Chip Cookie Recipe says 1 tsp baking soda BUT the video says 2 tsp. Which is correct. Thanks
Hi Vincenza, we added a footnote in the video to correct it but there’s no way to edit a video really once it’s live. The written recipe on my blog is correct.
Natasha. You are my favorite tecepir developers because you feature food that is tasty and realistic for todays modern family.
You and your family are beautiful. God bless you all.
Aww, you’re so nice! Thank you!
I love watching you cook. I just baked your wonderful Apple pie. It is the best one I have ever tasted. I just need to know what was the baking dish you used for this pie. It was so deep and held the pie beautifully. Help in advance. excited to watch more videos.
thanks Mary
Hi Mary, thank you so much. You can find the kitchen tools that I use here in our Amazon Page.
I made you peach jam – with no Pectin or preservatives it was awesome thank you so much
You’re welcome, Gail! I’m so glad you enjoyed this recipe!
Hi Natasha, thanks for all the great recipes! Your apple pie looks so good with that filling! I’m inspired! I have been following you for a while, and was so surprised when I found out from your blog that you live in Eagle, ID! My family and I live in Meridian. Keep looking up!!
So nice to know that. Our area is so wonderful, we love it here. I hope you love all the recipes that you will try, Diana!
I just found your channel and love it! I have been a foodie since a kid and love being in the kitchen. I would love to see some recipes using Spelt. I made your apple turnovers and made my own puff pastry using spelt. I would love to share some of my recipes that I converted using spelt which is a little bit more gentle on the digestive tract. I love your great smile and enthusiasm and thankful your family has a love for JESUS! Blessings!
Hi Tonya, thank you so much for that suggestion!
Hi Natasha I’ve just found your blog recently. The first recipe I tried was your Chicken Kiev, I made it for my husband and I it was delicious. My son stopped by on his way home from work, I had one chicken breast left over and I gave it to him to take home and try. He ate it in the car on the way home but unwilling keep one bite left for his wife to try. They loved it as much as we did. Great recipe and I love your blog and your wonderful family. God bless and Thank you.
I’m so happy you’re enjoying our blog and our recipes Bonnie! That’s just awesome!
Bonjour j adore vos recettes et vous êtes charmante mais j aimerais savoir si vous avez des livres de recettes j aimerais les acheter même si je ne parle pas anglais continuer votre merveilleux travail on vous aime
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments. I am currently working on a cookbook, it’s not yet available but I’ll share it with you all when it’s ready!
Hie Natasha, thank you for showing me the fun part of cooking with your great recipes. I enjoy trying them out.
You are most welcome. Cooking should be fun so the result can be excellent!
There is a scam using your page offering prizes for commenting on your Apple pie recipe. Please be aware.
Thanks for reporting that to us, Lou. We are aware of the scam pages but it would also be best to report these pages when you see them right away so that Facebook can block and disable the account.
Thank you Natasha (and Vadim) for sharing your talents with the world. I’ve never been a very good cook so figured now is as good a time as any to get to cookin’. I love your recipes, your presentation, ( your laugh!), the easy ingredients (“not hoitie toitie”) and your step by step instructions. I have learned a lot from you. You have a great story and I’m so proud to “know you” through social media. May God continue to richly bless you and Vadim and your beautiful family.
Aww, that’s the best! I’m so inspired reading this Sue! Blessings to you!
Can I substitute cranberries instead of blueberries in your lemon blueberry cake recipe?
Hi Pierre, I haven’t tested that to advise. If you experiment please let me know how you like that!
