My Diary

Welcome

Welcome

Welcome to Lerrie’s Kitchen! 🍳✨

Hi there, and welcome to my little corner of the internet! ^_^

Lerrie’s Kitchen is where I share the heart of my home—our kitchen. Here, I cook, experiment, and enjoy food with my family. I love creating meals and sharing the recipes for everyone to enjoy.

Cooking for My Family

As a working mom, my daily goal is to prepare healthy, quick, and easy meals for my little (and growing) family. That includes my “picky” hubby, my energetic son who’s starting to follow in his dad’s footsteps, and—exciting news—our soon-to-arrive second child! Yes, we’re expecting baby number two, and we couldn’t be happier! 🎉

Cooking isn’t just about food for me—it’s about love. I enjoy every moment in the kitchen because I love to eat (who doesn’t? ^_^), but even more, I treasure the smiles on my family’s faces when I serve them something delicious and healthy home cooked food. Those moments are priceless. And when friends and readers tell me they’ve tried one of my recipes and enjoyed it, my heart feels humbled and filled with joy.

Who This Blog Is For

This blog is for my family, friends, and for you—yes, you—who are here reading and supporting me. Whether you’re:

  • A busy mom or dad looking for quick, family-friendly recipes,
  • Someone living alone and just starting to cook,
  • Or simply a food lover who enjoys simple but tasty dishes…

You’ll find recipes here that are easy to prepare yet full of flavor.

What to Expect

Every week, I plan to share a special dish and recipe. Since I’m from the Philippines, you’ll definitely see a lot of Filipino recipes. But I also love experimenting, so expect a mix of flavors from Korea, American, Italian, Japanese, and other cuisines too. Food is all about exploring, after all!

My Inspirations

These recipes wouldn’t be possible without the people who inspire and support me:

  • My mom – She was the first to teach me how to cook and passed down recipes that I now get to share with you.
  • My in-laws – Their amazing dishes always inspire me. They somehow make cooking look simple, yet the food comes out so extravagant and incredibly delicious.
  • My husband and kids – My first (and sometimes toughest 😅) fans. They don’t always have a choice but to try what I make, but seeing them enjoy my cooking makes all the effort worthwhile.

Let’s Get Cooking!

So, let’s get started! For my debut recipe, I’m sharing one of my all-time Filipino favorites: Garlic Fried Rice. 🥢🍚 Simple, comforting, and oh-so-delicious—it’s a classic that will always have a special place in my kitchen.

Stay tuned, because this is just the beginning of our food journey together!
