Hi! My name is Mark Seconsky and I’m a self-taught home cook. Like many Midwesterns, I grew up eating a lot of simple, economical, meat and potato type meals that could be infinitely stretched depending on how many mouths there were to feed. But as I’ve grown, learned and dared to experiment, I began to update those recipes with healthier ingredients, global influences and time-saving hacks, all while staying true to my budget-minded beginnings.

So join me and let's start playing with our food again. I hope to make each experience easy on your wallet, easy on your waist and hopefully as enjoyable to cook as it will be to nosh!
