    Cooking tips and recipes from a food editor, straight to your kitchen

    Welcome to Tara Teaspoon. Here you'll find recipes for busy weeknights and leisurely weekends. Food for entertaining, or easy dishes for getting cozy at home.

    From me to you, these are recipes to help you Live Your Life Deliciously!

    I'm excited to share that I have a cookbook coming to you in the Fall of 2020. Stay tuned!

    I'm Tara Teaspoon

    Tara Teaspoon is one of my nicknames. My friends call me that and you're welcome to too!

    I'm a former magazine food editor and trained chef, and food has become my life!

    I spent many years working with Martha Stewart, (read about my Martha Stewart Omelet!) coming up with beautiful and delicious food for her publications.

    I've been in the food publishing and magazine industry for over 20 years, creating recipes and articles, and food styling for magazines, books, television and advertising.

    After spending time as a Food Editor at Martha Stewart Living, I was the Food Director at Ladies' Home Journal magazine (one of the original 7 Sisters of women’s magazines. The 131 year legacy was awesome).

    As the industry has changed, I've moved into sharing my recipes online, here on the blog, and consulting with brands and other publications.

    See me on TV

    On TV! Cooking with Martha Stewart

    I’ve appeared on the Martha Stewart show, The Today Show, The Food Network and lots of local news programs, cooking up a storm with the hosts.

    Subscribe to my YouTube page for tons of videos.

    I still do a lot of recipe development, food styling and content production for food brands and I just love what I do. (Click here to contact me about consulting work!)

    Easy recipes for weeknights and weekends

    I love to share recipes—so I’m making this one of the best recipe websites I possibly can!

    I hope you'll subscribe to my newsletter where I share more personal stories and my favorite recipes.

    Ask Tara

    I'm perfectly happy that I get asked for recipes and cooking advice all the time! This site is a place to gather, get inspired, and find resources and recipes.

    Really it's a place I can send people when they ask me what they should make for dinner, or "what's a good dessert to take to a party?" I get that one a lot!

    Feel free to make requests, ask questions on the ASK TARA page, or share creative ideas with me. Browse and cook!!

    Tara on the Christmas Cookie Challenge

    I currently live in New York City, come visit! And spend a lot of time in Utah where my family lives and where my book publisher is located!

    If you do visit NYC, check out my NY Eats guide, loaded with my favorite restaurants and bakeries to try.

    I'm inspired by the food and culture here every day.

    Here at Tara Teaspoon you can easily search for basics and staple recipes like frosting, pesto or my chocolate chip cookies (yes, I consider that a staple), as well as weeknight dinner inspiration (try “chicken”) and impressive dishes for entertaining or gatherings.

    Love, Tara Teaspoon
