The Recipe Table food blog.
welcome!

Hi, I'm Leigh-Anne!

Welcome to The Recipe Table! I make wholesome, delicious meals from scratch that comfort and nourish. I am a new food blogger, self-taught photographer and lover of all things creative. I also love food and want to share my recipes with you, which is why I’m here!

Welcome to The Recipe Table!

I’m delighted you are here, and so excited to share The Recipe Table with you! This blog has been in the works for 2 years, and I am thrilled it is finally launched. I can’t wait to share new recipes and more with you!

I’m originally from Cape Town, South Africa where I grew up eating yummy home-cooked meals, as well as eating out at an array of diverse restaurants from time to time. I now live in Spring Hill, Tennessee where I recreate meals inspired by the various places I’ve lived. One of the things I’m passionate about is eating  food “made from scratch”, this is how I was mentored in the kitchen. The time taken to create is part of a slower pace and presence our souls need to catch up to the journeys our bodies take.

I’ve spent 22 years preparing 3 meals a day for my gorgeous family of four (my husband and two young adult children), and over the course of the last 4 years, have been inspired to write a record of recipes that I can share with friends and family. My hope is to provide inspiration for you to eat at home in a way that is both delicious and healthy. You’ll find some of our favorite breakfasts and dinners here on TheRecipeTable.com, some that I've discovered and re-worked, and others that I have developed.

Cooking for my family and sharing meal times together is a way we’ve made memories together. The ritual and rhythm of gathering around the table represents so much more than just eating. This age-old tradition offers families and friends opportunities to connect in the most natural and enjoyable way: around a feasting table pleasing to not just one, but all five senses!

I aim to serve you by adding new recipes regularly to this blog. Sign up today so you’ll never miss a recipe! I would love to connect with you and hear your ideas; your feedback will prove invaluable to me! Please let me know what you would like to see by connecting with me on social media.
