I’m Nathan Cole, the founder of plateseveryday.com.

Cooking has always been my happy place. I grew up in Denver, Colorado, in a family that believed the best conversations happened over dinner. Whether it was my mom’s lasagna or my dad’s weekend pancakes, food was how we connected, celebrated, and unwound.

After years of working in restaurants and teaching cooking classes, I realized what people truly wanted were recipes that fit real life — the kind of dishes that taste amazing but don’t take hours to make. That’s why I created Plates Everyday: a space where home cooks can find reliable, flavorful recipes for any mood or moment.

Over the past 12 years, I’ve developed hundreds of recipes inspired by global flavors, seasonal ingredients, and everyday cravings. My goal is to make cooking feel rewarding instead of overwhelming — so you can spend more time enjoying meals with the people you love.

When I’m not in the kitchen, I’m exploring local food markets, photographing dishes, or testing out new spice blends. Cooking for me is both an art and a daily joy, and I’m thrilled to share that passion with you.

Thank you for stopping by and being part of this growing food community. Your support inspires me to keep creating and sharing more dishes every day.
