Hi, I’m Chelsea! I write cookbooks and I'm a single mum living in Southern Lutruwita/Tasmania.

I taught myself to cook from scratch when I was 30 and what started as a way to feed my kids on a tight budget, has now grown into a community of hundreds of thousands across Australia!

I’m passionate about bold flavours, seasonal produce, reducing food waste and cooking food that tastes great, without costing a fortune.

Whether you’ve been following since the early $10 Meals days or you’re new here, welcome! You’re always invited to the table.
