I’m Taly…..
Cooking has always been a true joy for me; there’s something incredibly fulfilling about handing someone a treat or serving a meal that’s been made with love. I’ve always dreamed of sharing my favorite easy, delicious recipes and making cooking accessible for everyone. I’m passionate about creating dishes that anyone can whip up, using fresh ingredients to bring out the best flavors, and helping others present food beautifully.

These recipes bring a mix of tradition and creativity with recipes that honor Irish classics while adding my own delicious twist. Warm up with coffee and tea drinks that have a boozy kick, perfect for toasting the occasion. Enjoy hearty mains like bacon and cabbage, but with my signature touch—Parmesan-infused parsley sauce for extra richness. While corned beef isn’t a traditional Irish dish, it’s a beloved staple in America, so of course, it’s on the menu! I’ve also included comforting cottage pies, a variety of homemade breads (ideal for smothering in butter), easy sides, and irresistible desserts—some boozy, some not, but all absolutely divine.

What I love most about Super Bowl recipes is that they're all about party food—finger foods that make grazing all day long a total joy.

It's all about the relaxed, social vibe, and these recipes are made for exactly that.
