Hi There!

I’m Cassandra Morris

Welcome to Cooking With Cassandra. I’m so happy you are here! I’m here to spill the beans (and maybe some wine) on foolproof recipes and kitchen hacks. Join me in my cozy little corner of the Internet, where we keep it simple, scrumptious, and just a tad bit spicy. Let’s cook up a storm and sprinkle a little inspiration in your kitchen and life!

Where It All Started

Many of you may remember me from my time on Big Brother Canada – you know, that wild rollercoaster ride that left us all questioning our life choices. Now, let’s talk about a little something that made me stand out like a sore thumb: my culinary skills, or lack thereof. I believe the houseguests called me the “Persian Princess”. It was like I was participating in a cooking competition, except my signature dish was microwaved leftovers. 

Fast forward to today, and I am really proud that the kitchen is no longer a danger zone when I’m around. I’ve graduated from the school of burnt toast and microwave mishaps to the Kitchen truly being my happiest place.

Seven years ago when I moved in with my now husband Walt, it became a necessity – “must eat to live.” So I dove into the internet spending hours going through recipes, reading reviews, and making notes on each new recipe I was planning to make. I made it my mission to learn how to cook delicious meals. I soon realized how much I enjoyed it, and before I knew it, I found myself taking charge of the kitchen on a daily basis and at every gathering with family and friends! I captured the process in photos and documented my best recipes, and that’s how Cooking With Cassandra was born. My husband likes to say I have gone from “toast to turkeys”!

 

All this to say… If I can cook, you can cook! I truly believe that together we can cook delicious and easy meals for every occasion.

I’m just a food-lovin’ Canadian Girl

Over the last few years, I have put countless hours in the kitchen. I’ve tested and re-tested recipes more times than I can count. Suffered a few burnt fingers. Chopped enough vegetables to feed an army. I’ve had late nights dedicated to writing blog posts and sharing knowledge I wish I had as a resource when learning how to cook – BUT it is all worth it today! Now, let’s get Cooking!
