What Kinds of Recipes Can I Find on EEE Cooks?
Updated
EEE Cooks is a family cooking blog where recipes are published inside dated posts rather than in a standalone recipe index. From the posts visible on the site, you can expect a mix of main courses, soups, desserts, and appetizers — including grilled Italian sausages with caramelized onions and shallots, salmon loaf, pumpkin pecan squares, crockpot lentil andouille soup, spinach artichoke dip, and chicken noodle soup. If you want to browse, you scroll through the post feed; each entry pairs a short story about the family's day with one linked recipe.
What the recipe range looks like
The posts show a home-cooking rotation rather than a single cuisine or diet. Based on the entries on the site:
| Category | Example from the site |
|---|---|
| Grilled main | Grilled Italian Sausages with Caramelized Onions and Shallots |
| Seafood main | Salmon Loaf (served as salmon cakes) |
| Soup / slow cooker | Crockpot Lentil Andouille Soup; Chicken Noodle Soup |
| Dessert | Mini Chocolate Cupcakes with White Chocolate Chips; Pumpkin Pecan Squares |
| Appetizer / dip | Spinach Artichoke Dip |
| Holiday side | Sweet Potato Casserole |
That spread suggests the site is useful if you want everyday family dinners, comfort food, and holiday-adjacent dishes, not restaurant-style or highly specialized cooking.
How the recipes are organized
Each recipe lives inside a dated blog post, and the post title is often a family anecdote rather than the dish name — for example, "You Must Eat Your Salmon Cake Before Going Out to Play" contains the Salmon Loaf recipe, and "Pumpkin is a Very Exciting Vegetable" contains Pumpkin Pecan Squares. The practical consequence: you cannot judge the recipe from the headline alone, so plan to skim post text or use the site's search and category links if they are available to you.
A few patterns worth knowing before you browse:
- Recipes are linked at the end of each post under a "Recipes:" label, so scroll to the bottom of an entry to find the actual dish.
- Posts are dated and sequential, so older recipes sit further back in the feed.
- Some posts are not recipes at all — for instance, "Painting After Thanksgiving" is about priming a bathroom, with Sweet Potato Casserole attached as the day's recipe.
- Occasional restaurant references appear, such as a family night at California Pizza Kitchen that inspired a homemade spinach artichoke dip, so not every dish is original to the site.
What to expect if you try a recipe
The posts read as personal cooking notes: what the family made, why they made it that night, and how it fit into their day. That means you get context and honest reactions ("it helps that the salmon cake is yummy!") rather than a standardized recipe card with tested yields and nutrition data. If you need precise measurements, timing charts, or dietary labeling, treat these as starting points and verify quantities as you cook.
For a first visit, pick a dish category you already cook — soup or a grilled main is a low-risk entry — open the matching post, and read to the end for the linked recipe.
