Hey there, I’m Becky Dolan
If there’s one thing that brings me the most joy, it’s good food and great company—and that includes my furry best friend, Dolly, my sweet (and very food-motivated) golden retriever. Whether she’s patiently waiting for a snack to “accidentally” drop or keeping me company while I test new recipes, she’s always by my side in the kitchen.
I’m Becky Dolan, the cook, food lover, and storyteller behind BeckyRecipes.com. My passion for food started when I was just a little girl, standing on a stool in my grandmother’s kitchen, watching her knead dough and stir simmering pots of homemade goodness. She taught me that cooking isn’t just about making meals—it’s about creating memories. That lesson stuck with me, and it’s the reason I started this blog: to share my love for simple, delicious, and approachable home cooking with you
How Becky Recipes Was Born
Life gets busy, and I know firsthand that finding time to cook can feel overwhelming. But I truly believe that homemade meals don’t have to be complicated to be incredible. That’s why I created Becky Recipes—to help home cooks (of all skill levels) bring joy back into the kitchen with easy, flavorful, and foolproof recipes.
Whether you’re looking for a quick weeknight dinner, a comforting Southern classic, or something fresh and new, you’ll find simple, well-explained recipes that make cooking stress-free and fun. Oh, and don’t be surprised if Dolly makes an appearance in my recipe testing process—she’s my official taste-tester (well, for the dog-friendly bits!).
What You’ll Find Here
✔️ Tried-and-Tested Recipes – If it’s on my blog, it’s been made in my own kitchen and approved by me (and Dolly’s hopeful puppy eyes).
🌮 A Taste of Texas & Beyond – I grew up in Texas, so expect a mix of bold, comforting flavors, smoky BBQ, Tex-Mex favorites, and creative twists on everyday meals.
⏳ Quick & Practical Cooking – Because we’re all busy, but that doesn’t mean we have to settle for bland, boring food.
🐾 Kitchen Moments with Dolly – She’s always around, keeping me company, and making sure no crumb goes to waste!
