Hey there I’m Rosie! Welcome to my blog, I Heart Recipes!
I was born, and raised in the Pacific Northwest.. Seattle to be exact. I didn’t go to culinary school. I’m simply a self taught cook, that loves to experiment. I guess you can say that I’ve always been about that ” kitchen life”!
Today aside from being a busy homeschool mom & wife, I am also full time food blogger, and social media influencer!
You can find me here ( which is my main site iheartrecipes.com) , My YouTube Channel, on Facebook, and I’m also on Instagram!
lady you should be the next Paula Deen your food looks wonderful cannot wait to get home buy some can biscuits already have cinnamon thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks Mary.
From Kenya with love
Thanks!
I love your meals Ms Rosie and have lots of your vids save! Thanks for being a GREAT COOK!
Thank YOU Patrick!
Hi Rosie! I’m so glad I found you. I look forward into adopting some of your delicious recipes, as I’m an avid cook and baker. I was reading your bio and I too have had a similar childhood experience; in fact, I grew up in Tacoma, WA!!! I miss living there so much. Any hoot, again I look forward towards the fun filled experience with your ingredients! Take care.
Hi Shkoda!!! So glad that you found me! WOW! We used to be neighbors! XOXO
I can’t find your mac n cheese recipe on your blog. I saw your video directing me to this blog for the exact recipe but I just can’t find it. I looked through the macaroni and cheese recipes but they were not yours. Help. Your blog is really beautiful and well constructed.
Please use the search tool. All the macaroni and cheese recipes listed on my blog are mine.
Rosie:
I would love a Crème Brulee French Toast Recipe made from Challah Bread. So far, there isn’t a youtube recipe on how to do this anywhere! It would be nice to have by Easter and Mother’s Day!
Wow your recipes on YouTube are amazing! I hope you have enough food at your place. I also hope that you feed your brother. You live by yourself? That’s crazy!
Best Reguards,
Jasmine Zayed
Hi Jasmine! What was above was my past. I am truly blessed these days. No I don’t live by myself. I’m a wife and mother these days 🙂
I was born and raised in New Orleans. Creole and Cajun food is my Bali wick. I cook a similar chicken etouffe which is just smothered chicken in a roux gravy. I must say that I like the twist of putting milk or cream in the gravy. Can’t wait to try it out on some bone in thighs I have to defrost.
I am glad for the blessings that you have received, your husband is blessed toi. He has a beautiful wife and she can cook soul food like a diva. Oh, let’s not forget his child too. It is great coming across your blog. I signed up for emails. Just an old white guy married 35 years 2 days from now to my eternal bride, my queen. Growing up in New Orleans I witnessed much social injustice that shouldn’t be allowed to happen to any of God’s children.
Alan Brown now in Michigan 25 years cause I married a damned Yankee… I mean a sweet northwestern girl that has put up with me and stood by my side or pushed from behind in some adversity. But she has dedicated herself to our Eternal Marriage. We do not believe that at death do we part.
Hi Alan! This comment made me chuckle!! 35 years of marriage? That’s beautiful!! Thanks so much for following my blog!!
Hi Rosie.
you’re beautiful and a great cook! I love macaroni and cheese casserole but don’t know how to make it. I especially like it made with Hoop cheese. Can you please tell me how to make a mac and cheese casserole?
Thank you
Hi Freda! I don’t have any macaroni & cheese recipes with hoop cheese, but I have several recipes.
Southern Baked Macaroni and Cheese
Soul Food style macaroni and cheese
Slow Cooker Macaroni and cheese
Rosie your mac and cheese do you use the whole box of elbow macaroni?
Hi Sherry, the measurements will be listed within the recipe 🙂

Hi Janet! No need to log in. Feel free to browse around by using search tool on top of the page. XOXO
Hi Rosie, I enjoy cooking almost anything..so I was low on cash and was thankful I had all the ingredients to make this mouth watering dish. I added a can of hot tomato sauce to mine to get it from drying out. But the finished product had my house smelling Amazing, my son came out of his room to see what was smelling so good. I love it, from one cooking Sista to another. Can’t wait to make the dessert recipe I saw on your blog (Krispy Kreme Bread Pudding) ta die for!
I HEART this blog

Rosie, I’m from North Carolina, and I love good soul food, cooking,eating and feeding everybody in my Family, my sons and several adopted sons…Collards is one of my specialties I am now living alone for the first time so its hard for me to just cook for myself, I made smothered chicken breasts,Broccoli,Mashed potatoes and a strawberry cobbler for Dessert, will be eating leftovers tomorrow and the day after lol, I can’t wait to try your Collards recipe and several more…I’m following you on Pinterest now, Have you ever tried putting your collards in fat back grease after you boil them? I also add a little sugar to mine while their boiling I know thats not the healthy way lol but thoughts how I’ve always made them Bless you Thank you for this Beautiful Soul food Blog 🙂
Hi Donna! I some times use fat back in my greens, but I’m not a fan of adding sugar to my greens. I think it maybe because I didn’t grow up eating them like that, but I know lots of people that make their greens with a little sugar 🙂
Love your blog and channel! I’m never eating store bought bread again! Homemade bread all day!
Aweee. Thank you!!!
I found you on youtube and then visited your website which is now my absolute favorite. I love that your recipes are easy to follow and the ingredients are simple to create something delicious. I will subscribe and definitely support and pass the word along. I’m really glad I found you!

I made your smothered chicken….OMG…followed it to a T but I added green peppers…I have never had smothered chicken and wanted to do something different for my husband because he loves soul food. I am kinda picky….BUT this was so soulful..My son was licking his fingers and he is picky like me…My husband just sat back in his chair and looked at me and was like, “babe that was soooo good”…. Thanks for the recipe hookup!…I love your website..I’m looking forward to Thanksgiving. Girl you are awesome. God bless.
I have a TON of Thanksgiving & Christmas recipes coming so stay tuned!
Hey Rosie….
It took me a while to find a website/blog a about good wholesome soulfood as well as other recipes. I also luv your YouTube videos. Are u going to publish a cookbook soon.?
Take care and keep entertaining us with your videos. … LUV THEM!!!!
Danielle
Hi Danielle- I’m glad that you like the recipes & videos…. I’d love to publish a book, but that wouldn’t be for a while. 😀
Ms. Rosie,
I stumbled onto to your blog while searching for a good southern/soul recipe for a sweet potato pie. I didn’t spend as much time watching my mom in the kitchen as I should have, and now I’m living with that regret. My mama’s name is Rosie also, and after viewing some of your recipes they seemed similar to hers. Because of the similarities I had to try a few of your recipes. Rosie THANK YOU !!!!!! You brought back some of my childhood memories. I lost my mom Rosie to breast cancer, and some of her recipes I could not remember how she cooked it or the ingredients, and because of your blog, I am able to make similar dishes as my moms. Your peach cobbler, beans, potato o’brien is exactly as hers and your caramel cake. MMMM MMM Good. Sending prayers for you and yours.
Hello Rosie I love your homemade yeast rolls and they are awesome and I think that you are too ,please keep up the good work and I sure hope that you will get a foodnetwork program because I think that you would do very well and you are a very blessed young lady.
Hi Rosie, I love your recipes and how you keep your videos on you tube nice and short. Thank you for helping me become a better cook. My family loves this stuff and so do I ❤
Thank you for trying my recipes!
Hi Rosie love your recipes, and I do love you are frugal. I too grew up in the “hood ” NYC projects . I grew up on food stamp and the “cheese line” Lol kool aid rice and eggs rice and beans chicken. Surprise meat stews Lol . My aunt taught me how to cook at 12 and how to stretch a dollar at the supermarket. Thank you for your recipes :).
Us “hood” girls, start young in the kitchen! LOL.
We sure do Lol 🙂
Rosie,
I stumbled upon your site looking for a good recipe. I found tons of good recipes!!! I really enjoy your display of directions and delightful voice. I’m a southern girl so many of your recipes are just like my grandma’s. She’s 91 and taught me to cook “Ole school”! I would love to find a recipe for her Cat Head Biscuits. We ate them with tomato gravy. She made them in a bowl of flour with a little “well” in the middle where she mixed the ingredients….eggs, lard and buttermilk. Any thoughts? Thank you again for such awesome recipes. You are way better than the cooks on the Food Network.
Mindy
Hi Mindy!
I don’t think that I am familiar with Cat Head Biscuits. It sounds pretty good though!
I love your blogs and vids!!! I make at least two of your dishes every holiday season!!
Thanks!
Hi Rosie, I am from North Carolina and also grew up no stranger to food assistance but I am grateful for having grown up that way because it taught me a life lesson. I stumbled upon your blog and I must say. ..WOW….I absolutely love your recipes. Thank you. Hopefully the network will pick you up.
Thank you! Let’s keep our fingers crossed. XOXO
Rosie, I just came across your website/blog tonight while at work looking at recipes and I will admit I am loving your style. Your easy to follow steps and your recipes. Thanks I look forward to following you for a long time. Thanks Rosie and keep them coming!
Hi Kim! I’m glad that you found me! Please let me know if you have any questions and etc. XOXO
Just discovered you on YouTube! I’m going to try several of your recipes…I’m currently cooking greens in the crockpot. This is my first time ever cooking collard greens from scratch!
I’m glad that you found me! I’m sure that you will pull off the greens hun!
Going to make your mashed potatoes tomorrow – thanks for the recipe and Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Holidays!
Hi. My name is Martha. I am cooking your Southern Smothered Chicken Tonight. I am looking forward to it.
I can’t get the link you sent me to activate my account. Can you tell me why? I will let you know how dinner turns out. Thanks.
the links are sent automatically. I’m not sure why yours did not go through.
Ive gotten the link, i just can’t activate it. Dinner came out good. My goofy self had a few mishaps though. lol
I had the potatoes cooked and mashed. Went to season with some pepper, and a WHOLE bunch came out. So i said we will cook rice. lol Potatoes were not ediable. lol As i get to the gravy part, its looks thick. i keep following the recipe, and low and behold, i only put in 1 cup of chicken broth. Sheesh! lol Its was still good nonetheless. I will make this again.
Hi Rosie, I seen your stove top Mac & cheese on utube & I tried it. I LOVED it. It was so delicious, so I came here to your website & I am excited about now trying the southern cabbage recipe!!

Hi Consuelo! So glad that you found me! I will try to upload more easy recipes for busy parents like myself!
Rosie, I found your site this morning looking for a bread recipe! I got a kitchen aid mixer for Xmas ( silly kids) and my bread is already in the pans rising! It was so easy. I tried sweet rolls from a different site last week and they didn’t rise very good. I think I added too much flour. I love your recipes and joined your site right away. However when I tried to confirm it, the computer said your page was no longer available, help! Greetings from northeast Wisconsin!

Hi Rosie, I’ve been a fan of your recipes for years. Thanks for teaching me how to cook! 🙂 I was wondering if you have ever tried making lobster lasagna. I tried some overseas a few years ago and it was delicious, unfortunately the chef was not handing out any recipe. I remember looking forward to the days that he made it. Sooo yummy! 🙂
Hi Dee! How about a seafood lasagna with lobster, crab, and shrimp? I’d love to make it!
Yasssss!!!! :))
Hi Rosie. Can you make a recipe for a fresh strawberry pie ?

Hi Warren! Glad that you found me!
Oh pity I was in the united states in May to see my son who is studying there, I could have made a leap to see you … From Ivory Coast a big kiss for your wonderful site.
Rosie. I just found your site and I too am a southern girl, raised in North Carolina. I have been cooking since I was about 11 years old after my Father died. It was just my Mom, sister and I and when I was upset, I would cook. After my sister went to college, it was up to me to cook dinner. I love cooking and baking and I can not wait to try your recipes. They use everyday ingredients that I have on had. I definitely heart your site!!!!!
Hi Jeanie! Glad that you like my blog! XOXO

Hi Rosie,
I love your recipes! I’v made about 5 and they all turned out great. You should have your cooking show on TV. 🙂
Allison
Thanks Allison!
Today, I baked the turkey wings. They were the best ever!
I seasoned exactly as suggested. I used packaged organic chicken broth, baked at 335 degrees for 2 hours). I boiled the wing tips in chicken broth.
I am freezing the broth (that was boiled and the broth from these baked wings) for the next time that I need broth for this dish or for another dish.
Thank you!
I absolutely love your recipes. I have tried several of your recipes and they were delicious. I visit your website daily to prepare my dinner. Thank you for blessing us with your talent and turning me into a wonderful cook.
Thanks LaToya! Glad that you like my blog! XOXO
I don’t even know you and I’m proud of you!! I pray for your success!
Thank you!!! XOXO
Hi Rosie, Let me first say that I love your site. Secondly I am not a cook….I am probably the worst cook ever. Normally my family and I go to my sisters house for thanksgiving…but due to a family incident we will not be joining them. I am going to use your recipes to cook for my husband and my daughter. Wish me luck!!! Luckily for Christmas we will be cruising…..LOL
I’m sure that you will have a successful Thanksgiving! LOL
I Love these recipes. I’m on a quest to try everything!!! Do you have a cookbook?
Hi there! I don’t have a cookbook at this time.
Hi Rosie, I’m trying to spice up thanksgiving dinner this year. Do you have a good recipe for rabbit.
Hi Juanita! I don’t have a rabbit recipe uploaded. Sorry.
Hi Rosie,
Made your Mac And cheese last thanksgiving it was a hit!
Everyone loved it
Thank you
Geri
Hi Geri! Glad that you liked the recipe.
Hi Rosie. I was looking for a authentic southern style sweet potato recipe when I found yours. Thank you so much it was absolutely DELICIOSO. You are such a joy to me you are beautiful in sharing your recipies and in the person that you are. May the Lord continue to bless you and all you care for.
Hi Maria! I’m so glad that you found my blog! Happy Holidays!
Hey! Rosie
I’m trying your Southern candied yams for the first time. They taste really good. I think the ground ginger really gives them just a little different flavor. Thank you so much and Happy Thanksgiving. God Bless you and your family.
I have tried a few of your recipes and they have all been amazing!!! You should make a cookbook. I would definitely buy it
Thanks! I’m working on it! XOXO
Hello I just stumbled upon your blog and so far I like it I’m for ever trying to cook what I see on line so my first dish will be your smothered chicken and I hope you don’t mind but I reposted it on my FB page
Hi Michael. Glad that you found my blog!
Hi Rosie, I just subscribed to your blog and your greens look sooooo yummy. Yes ma’am, will be making this on New Years Sunday 🙂 Thank you so much for sharing.
Hi Laura! Thanks for subscribing!
You are welcome! One more question for you Rosie? In that whole duration of preparing my greens, it will be 6 hours in crockpot on high? Just clarifying 🙂 Wanted to make sure I read that right 🙂
Hi Laura. I’m unsure which green bean recipe you are asking about, because I have several. Can you locate the recipe and leave a comment under it? Thanks so much.
Hi Rosie,
Every time that I come by your You Tube channel, I learn something new. Today I am going to try your peach cobbler and then next week the lasagna. Your a very special person for sure.
God Bless you and your family.
Jim
Gary, Indiana
Hi Jim! Let me know how the recipes come out for ya!
I have to say I cant wait to try this one. Every singe recipe I have tried of yours has come out so delicious! Thank you!!
Thanks Shawn!
Hey,
I bet you your Haitian or of some sort of Caribbean heritage. Your recipes are the only ones i’ve seen which tells the reader to “clean the chicken/turkey with lemon”. Am i wrong?
LMAO!!! I do have caribbean roots! lol
Could you post a list of your most used seasonings/ingredients for majority of your recipes? I’m going grocery shopping around your recipes next week. Would help a ton
Here is a list of my most used seasonings
Hi Rosie l want to make the meatloaf in your recipe it calls for 2 lbs of ground beef l bought 5 lbs of ground beef How much of the other ingredients l need to use since lm using more ground beef Thank You
Hi Linda, You need to add 2 1/2 times more ingredients.
Dear Rosie, I have been a fan of your website/cooking recipes for about 5 years now and I am enthralled with the results as I move through them. I sitting here right now preparing to cook your Southern oxtails recipes while watching the movie and “Julie and Julia.” It occurred to me that while I’ve ben taking advantage of your recipes, I have not contributed to your efforts.
As such, while I’m sure that advertisers contribute to you for allowing them to show their product (or they should), I would like to know how may offer a small contribution of my own to you. Do you have a PayPal account? Please advise.
Regards,
Ernest
Hi Ernest! I thank you for the kind gesture! However, you coming to my blog, and trying my recipes is more than I can ever ask for! Thank you so much my friend!
thank you so much for your wonderful recipes. i enjoy cooking and baking.
Thanks for stopping by Carolyn!
Rosie- I made your turkey wings and classic mac n cheese! I’m a hero in yhouse. Realky! Thank you!
Thanks for trying my recipe!
Hello Rosie,
I just made your southern smothered chicken recipe and it was the bomb. Shared it with my Mom and siblings they love it too. I need more recipes preferably dinner. Thank very kindly.
Thanks for trying my recipe! Many more to come 🙂
Hi Rosie, I have personally found that by BAKING THE SWEET POTATO, it is a lot more flavorful. You extra time to do your crust while potatoes bake. They are easier to peel if coated in oil before baking. I would not change you ingredients if that’s what you like. Just my opinion. Enjoy
Hi Dee! If you head over to my Southern Sweet Potato recipe, I actual mention that I now bake my sweet potatoes. I like both ways though 🙂
Love your blog Rosie.
Thanks so much Kelsey!
Rosie, Thanks so much for your recipes.
Thanks so much Lucy!
Hey Rosie,
I am so glad I found your blog. I first started seeing post from friends on FB. Then I knew I had to follow you. I have printed off a few of your recipes and I plan to make them for thanksgiving. Can’t wait to try the crock pot green beans with potatoes and bacon pieces! U will hit you back to let you know how everything turned out. Have a wonderful holiday!
Valia Glover
Thanks so much for coming by Valia!
Hi Rosie,
I received an Instant Pot as a Christmas gift and was reluctant to use it because, I consider myself a ‘real cook’ and it was no short cuts for me! But I tried it. OMG!!! I love this thing!. I was wondering if you have any pressure cooker recipes?
Thanks
None listed at the moment 🙂
Rosie, I live in Germany with my German wife. I just found your meatloaf and showed my wife. Last week she made me meatloaf and it was not like yours. Hers was lean beef and it had four boiled eggs in it. Germans call it “wrong bunny”. Tomorrow I will make your meatloaf, which by the way, is almost the same as my grandmothers. Mimi was born in Mississippi in 1929 and she taught me how to cook soul food. Looking at you cook hush puppies caused me to practically drool. Tomorrow we will have “Soul Food Day” here in Germany. The problem is that these people don’t have cilantro or many of the things we take for granted in the US. Watching your videos reminds me of my childhood and just how special my Mimi was. I will look to see if you have a recipe for “cat-head” biscuits. If you don’t have one would you work on one? Mimi used flour and lard. That is about all I can remember, I was only six when I watched her. Thanks again for all you do and I hope you are blessed for what you do for all of us hungry people!
I happened upon your website in a search for smothered chicken. Since then I’ve tried several other recipes. Your recipe selection is wonderful!!!! Thank you so much for sharing. Your goulash recipe was very very close to my original, as was a baked bean recipe. I look forward to an attempt at your gumbo recipe soon. Wish me luck! It will be my first attempt..
Sincerely,
A Midwestern Gal that may or may not know what she’s doing in the kitchen on any given day.. lol
LOL!!!! Keep me updated on the outcome 😉
Hi Rosie,
Made the mac and cheese…loved the flavor but was a little too runny. Your video looks like you are using less half and half and more butter than is in the posted recipe. My cheese soup and half and half was very liquid not creamy like in you video. Can you help me figure this out because I want to make it again! Thanks!
also….could not find 15 oz can of soup. Will the 10 oz size work?
No, you need 15 oz of the soup. Sounds like that’s why it was so thin. Try using 1 and a 1/2 cans next time 🙂
Hi there Rosie how are you , This is Tish your dad’s wife in which I’m a widowe now. I was searching on how to make smothered chicken with gravy and your iheart blog came up on recipes that you’ve done. So if you can assist me on the best and quick way to do it, I will gladly appreciate it. Please and Thank you.
Hi Tisha. You can find my recipe HERE. I hope all is well!
Good morning Rosie, hope all is going well with you 🙂 Rosie, what would be a good side dish (like a vegetable) to fix with scalloped potatoes?
Thank You!!!
How about green beans? 🙂
Love this, you are awesome and continue to do YOU!!
Thank you!
Hello Rosie,
I’m Miss Mary and I live on the extreme opposite end of the country from you, and that would be a small suburb just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. I just stumbled on to your seafood lasagna recipe and it look like it is to die for! I have been searching for a great seafood casserole recipe. With the exception of the pasta, your recipe comes closest to what I’m looking for than any I’ve seen. My family roots (both sides), are from rural Georgia, so southern cooking abound in my DNA! But, I so enjoy preparing and tweaking recipes handed down from my great-grandmother, grandmother, and mother. I take what I think is the best of their stuff and add mine to it. I’m proud to add your recipe(s) to my food arsenal!! Thanks and love you for sharing!
