About me.

Hello and welcome to Kitchen Projects by Rachel!

As you may have guessed it, my name is Rachel (she/her). I’m a home cook, artist, and food photography enthusiast living in Hoboken, New Jersey. Outside of working at my 9 to 5 healthcare non-profit job, you can usually find me spending countless hours in my tiny apartment kitchen.

I have a particular fondness for:

  • Pies - Pie is superior to cake. Don’t try to convince me otherwise.

  • Soup - Having a cozy bowl of soup is the only redeeming quality of braving the winter months in the Northeast.

  • Pesto on pasta, pizza, on vegetables…on everything.

  • Any recipe that involves butternut squash!

I created this blog to share how I exercise my creativity and find inspiration in the kitchen. I share my cooking success stories, mistakes, and everything in between. Now, let’s put on a podcast or playlist and get to cooking!
