Welcome to Rooted Deep Home – Simple, Delicious, and Wholesome Recipes for Every Family
Hi, I’m Alicia.
I’m a homemaker, mom of five, and passionate cook. For the past 10 years, I’ve been cooking from scratch every day for my family of seven—creating meals and desserts that bring comfort and joy to our table.
Why This Blog?
Rooted Deep Home is all about family-friendly recipes that are simple, affordable, and full of flavor. I specialize in sourdough bread, sourdough discard recipes, and comforting meals that are perfect for busy families.
With over 10 years of daily cooking and 5 years of sourdough experience, I’ve gained the hands-on knowledge to share tried-and-true recipes that actually work. I love sharing my journey with you through easy-to-follow instructions, tips, and updates.
Every recipe you’ll find here has been tested in my own kitchen—often more than once. I take time to rework and improve recipes based on reader feedback and what’s working best in real home kitchens like yours. After baking hundreds of sourdough loaves over the years, I know that little details matter, and I’m always refining to make sure you get consistent, delicious results.
As I continue to learn and grow in the kitchen, I update my recipes to reflect new insights and techniques—so you’re always getting the best version possible. This blog is a living space, evolving alongside our family life and kitchen adventures.
A Little About Me.
I didn’t always love cooking, but over time, I’ve grown to love creating wholesome meals from scratch. From learning the art of sourdough baking to perfecting our favorite family dinners, I’ve found joy in feeding the people I love well.
We live on a small farm in Kansas, where my husband and I are raising our five children. The rhythms of home, farm, and family inspire everything I create here at Rooted Deep Home.
More Than Just Recipes.
At Rooted Deep Home, I share more than step-by-step instructions—I share the heart behind cooking. My goal is to help you enjoy the process of making nourishing meals and creating meaningful moments around the table. Whether you’re looking for sourdough tips, easy weeknight dinners, or fun desserts to make with your kids, you’ll find inspiration here.
