About RecipeOMG
Hi, I’m Sara Mitchell.
RecipeOMG is where I share the kind of food I grew up around—simple Southern comfort food made with familiar ingredients and cooked the old-fashioned way. These are the recipes that show up at family dinners, potlucks, and holidays, usually written on a stained recipe card and passed around for years.
I’ve always enjoyed cooking at home, especially using cast iron and traditional methods that don’t rely on shortcuts or trends. Over time, friends and family kept asking for my recipes, and eventually I started sharing them more widely inside a private cooking group I manage. RecipeOMG grew out of those conversations and questions.
Most of the recipes here focus on classic Southern comfort food, but from time to time I also share familiar Canadian home-style dishes that fit the same spirit—simple, comforting, and made for everyday kitchens.
Every recipe on this site is tested in my own home kitchen. I care about clear instructions, practical tips, and explaining why something works so home cooks can feel confident making it themselves. If a recipe doesn’t turn out right, it doesn’t get published.
RecipeOMG is written for U.S. home cooks who enjoy classic flavors and straightforward cooking—especially anyone who wants to recreate the kind of food they remember growing up with.
I’m glad you’re here, and I hope these recipes find a place in your kitchen.
