We're sisters who love to cook, but beware (or be delighted), because we're always finding shortcuts and substitutions to make recipes faster, easier, and hopefully healthier. This website is named for our grandmother, Norma, whose practical and creative approach to cooking inspired our kitchen philosophy.

We don't follow strict diets, and are notoriously loose with cultural cuisine interpretations. But if you need something quick for unexpected company or just want to get back to the book you're reading, welcome, Kindred Spirit. You've found your new recipe besties.

Have you ever grilled your veggies? We love ours with just a spritz of olive oil and some salt and pepper. It’s fresh and delicious, and keeps the house from heating up!

It’s garden harvest season. We’re always trying to make our favorite recipes just a little bit healthier! One of our favorite ways is by adding veggies. What’s your favorite vegetable?

Ebilskiver, cheater-style. We like them stuffed with jam. Or Nutella. Or ham and cheese. What’s your favorite way to ear them?

Fiesta chicken and black bean soup with quinoa? Yes please! This soup is filling and delicious, and lighter than many taco soup recipes. Serve with a squeeze of lime for added deliciousness! <recipe at link in profile>

Cheating in the Kitchen is all about simple recipe
Cheating in the Kitchen is all about simple recipes the whole family will love. Cooking is lovely, but when a new chapter is waiting in our favorite books, we’re all about taking shortcuts. Is that cheating? Maybe so, but we’re okay with that.

Bierocks are easy when you use a cheater shortcut for the roll dough!
