WELCOME TO BusyRecipe

Hi, I’m Emma Blake the heart and hands behind BusyRecipe.

I’m a mom of two, a former marketing executive turned full-time food blogger, and someone who has always believed that great meals don’t have to take hours to prepare. My passion for cooking started in my grandmother’s kitchen, watching her turn everyday ingredients into something magical. Since then, I’ve spent over 10 years refining my skills from mastering 30-minute dinners to developing shortcuts that make life easier without compromising taste.

After juggling a fast-paced job and family dinners for years, I realized the need for a cooking space that caters to busy people like you and me and BusyRecipe.com was born.

My Mission

At BusyRecipe.com, my mission is simple:
To help busy individuals and families create quick, easy, and delicious meals without stress.

I believe cooking should be joyful — not a chore. That’s why every recipe here is crafted to be efficient, approachable, and full of flavor. Whether you have 15 minutes or 45, there’s something here for you.

What Makes BusyRecipe.com Different?

• Fast & Reliable Recipes: Most dishes come together in 30 minutes or less.
• Minimal Ingredients: Pantry-friendly, budget-conscious meals using easy-to-find ingredients.
• Balanced for Real Life: From low-carb and gluten-free to comfort foods and one-pan wonders.
• Bonus Tips: Smart meal prep strategies, kitchen hacks, and time-saving tricks to make every meal easier.

A Personal Story

I’ll never forget the day I cooked a full dinner in 20 minutes while helping my daughter with homework and taking a client call all at once. That meal? My One-Pot Creamy Garlic Chicken Pasta. It reminded me that food should fit your life, not complicate it.

That recipe is now one of the most loved on the blog and I invite you to try it.

I’d love to stay in touch with you.
