Welcome!
I’m Abbey – the recipe creator, writer, and photographer behind My Casual Pantry. I love coffee, chocolate, the season of Fall, and all things holiday. Most of all, I love casual, everyday food. I’m happiest cooking and baking for the people I love. The kitchen is truly my happy place. I created My Casual Pantry to share my love of food with you! My food is comfortable and casual, not fussy. These recipes are a combination of favorites from my childhood and others that have become new traditions with my family. I hope you enjoy your time in the kitchen sharing these recipes with your family.
My Casual Pantry has been seen on Foodgawker, Red Tricycle, and was featured as Food Blog of the Day on Foodista (June 19, 2019).
