Hello, fellow food lovers! Welcome to MyGourmetConnection!
We are Lynne and Erika, a mother-daughter blogging team with decades of combined home cooking experience. We began our online culinary journey back in 2008 and have been sharing our recipes and love of cooking ever since.
Our mission is to help you add variety to your everyday meals, build your kitchen expertise, and discover the benefits of cooking with a wide range of ingredients. We take pride in offering a collection of recipes that not only satisfy your taste buds but also broaden your culinary horizons. So whether you’re looking to recreate a comforting family favorite or try something new, you’re bound to find something delicious here on MyGourmetConnection.
About Our Recipes
MyGourmetConnection is a trusted resource for home cooks looking to make wholesome, everyday meals with fresh ingredients. Each recipe on our blog is an original creation and our collection includes modern takes on classic favorites as well as new and innovative dishes.
- All of our recipes are thoroughly tested and include straightforward, step-by-step instructions that cooks of all skill levels can follow with ease.
- Nearly all of our recipes focus on from-scratch preparation and use minimally processed ingredients that are readily available at grocery chains.
- We never focus on fad diets, but we are always mindful of unhealthy cooking habits and make every effort to minimize ingredients like fats and sugar whenever possible.
- While our recipe collection includes a fair amount of easy weeknight meals, our focus is on flavor and quality results, so we don’t create recipes simply to limit the time spent in the kitchen.
In addition to everyday meals, we understand the importance of sharing good food with loved ones. That’s why we also feature a selection of recipes perfect for entertaining small groups. From casual get-togethers to special celebrations, our entertaining recipes are designed to impress and bring people together around the table.

A Note From Lynne
Back in 2008, my daughter Erika and I had an idea to share our food adventures online by reviewing gourmet foods (hence the blog name). But, it turned out that our readers were far more interested in the original recipes we shared from time to time. So, we listened and our recipe collection began to grow.
Life has had its ups and downs. Over the years we’ve toasted successes and mourned some deeply personal losses, including that of my mom, the incredible cook who inspired us and consulted with us on all things food. But, we’ve kept growing, adapted to the changes involved in running a food blog, and stay busy creating new recipes and refreshing our older ones with new photos and insights.
We truly hope our recipes inspire you to cook, create, and savor the moments spent in your kitchen and at the table. Many thanks to you for joining us!
Here’s to great meals!
Lynne
