Hi there! I'm Sarah, the home cook behind easyrecipestotry.com. I believe in being completely transparent with you about how I keep this website running and continue sharing delicious, easy-to-follow recipes, so let me explain how some of the links throughout my site work.
Throughout my recipe posts, cooking guides, and kitchen tips, you'll find links to cooking tools, ingredients, kitchen appliances, and other products I genuinely recommend. Some of these are affiliate links, which means if you click through and make a purchase, I might earn a small commission - but it never costs you anything extra.
These commissions help me cover website expenses and give me more time to develop and test new easy recipes for you and your family!

- Stand mixers and food processors
- Quality ingredients and specialty items

- Cookbooks and cooking resources
I may earn from those purchases as an Amazon Associate. Your support through these links directly helps me spend more time in my kitchen perfecting recipes and less time worrying about website costs.
Walmart Affiliate Program
I also participate in Walmart's affiliate program. When you shop through my Walmart links for:
- Pantry staples and everyday ingredients

I may receive a small commission that helps support this site and allows me to continue creating free recipe content.

These trusted partners might include:
- Specialty ingredient and spice companies

- Recipe software and kitchen tools
My Promise to You
I only recommend what I actually use and believe in. Every mixing bowl, ingredient brand, kitchen appliance, or cooking tool I link to is something I've personally tried in my own cooking adventures. I will never recommend a product just to earn a commission.
My Honest Recommendation Policy:
- Personal testing - I use products in my own kitchen before recommending them
- Honest reviews - I share both pros and cons of products
- Family-tested - Many recommendations come from what works in my everyday cooking
- Value-focused - I prioritize products that offer good value for money
- Transparent disclosure - I'll always tell you when I receive products for review
If I ever receive free products to review, I'll always disclose this upfront in that post. My opinions remain honest and unbiased whether I paid for something myself or received it for testing purposes.
