A warm welcome to The Cozy Food Blog! Let us introduce ourselves and what this blog is about.

We are Monika and Erik, a couple from Finland and Sweden who share a passion for cooking and baking as well as sharing cultural experiences with friends and family through food and baked goods. The idea for the blog started from sharing some traditional Finnish and Swedish recipes with our international friends and them wanting the recipes as well.

Our motto is “Life is too short to eat boring food.” For us, cooking is about trying new things and cozy moments together in the kitchen. Cooking can feel like a tedious task for many and therefore we would like to inspire you with some tasty and simple recipes.

Mostly in this blog, we focus on homecooked meals with a Nordic twist and occasionally try recipes from other cultures. We aim to eat healthily and like to try vegetarian recipes but consider that a little bit of cream and butter is okay in moderation. Occasionally we also try gluten-free and stomach-friendly recipes due to Erik’s IBS.

We hope you enjoy this blog and find some inspiration for cozy cooking moments.

Erik & Monika
