Welcome to Feel the Recipes – Where Flavor Meets Feeling

At Feel the Recipes, cooking is personal. We believe every meal tells a story, whether you’re exploring a new cuisine, cooking for loved ones, or finding inspiration in unexpected places. Here, recipes aren’t just shared—they’re felt.

Guiding this journey is Clara Nour, joined by her vibrant co-authors Tía Maribel and Mama Lila. Together, they bring heart, flavor, and insight to your kitchen.

Meet Clara Nour – The Heart & Hands Behind It All

I’m Clara Nour, the founder and recipe developer of Feel the Recipes. My culinary path grew from a passion for blending culture, comfort, and care into every dish.

From culinary education to recipe testing, food writing, and global exploration—I’ve lived in the kitchen, the classroom, and the market. I create recipes that feel real, accessible, and soulful.
