About Me
Hi, I’m Kensley Rae Villamore!
Welcome to kensleyrae, my little corner of the internet dedicated to delicious, achievable, and joyful cooking. I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m the chef, founder, and chief taste-tester behind every recipe you’ll find here. My passion is creating food that brings people together, whether it’s a quick weeknight dinner or a celebration-worthy feast.
My Food Philosophy
I believe that cooking shouldn’t be complicated or intimidating. My philosophy is simple: use fresh, quality ingredients to create dishes that are both nourishing and exciting. I focus on seasonal produce, bold flavors, and recipes that can be easily adapted to your family’s tastes. For me, food is more than just sustenance—it’s a way to show love, create memories, and celebrate life’s moments, big and small.
My Story
I didn’t always know I wanted to be a chef. I grew up in a family where the kitchen was the heart of the home, but I initially pursued a different career path. After a few years, I realized my true calling was, and always had been, food. I took a leap of faith, went to culinary school, and haven’t looked back.
I started kensleyrae as a way to document my culinary journey and share the recipes I was developing. It has since grown into a wonderful community of food lovers, and I feel incredibly grateful to be able to share my passion with you every day.
