Welcome to Cooking for a Crowd!
I’m Julie, and I love to cook and feed my family and friends. We live in an amazing neighborhood in Sonoma County, California. When we moved to Sonoma County in 2020, we had spent two years looking for a property that would allow for a family compound. We found a gorgeous half acre with an almost perfect forever house, a cottage in the back yard for our oldest son and daughter-in-law, and space for a travel trailer for our youngest daughter as a temporary living space. Having the five of us on the same property, especially during the pandemic, was a dream come true.
Fast forward a year and a half: a very fancy kitchen remodel, and the house across the street becomes available to buy. Now, our youngest daughter and her boyfriend live in the cottage, travel trailer is sold, and our oldest son and his wife buy the house across the street. Sunday Supper anyone?
In addition, we have made friends with a bunch of the neighbors. Going to get the mail is a chance to stop and chat, and, since we have the biggest kitchen, hosting neighborhood dinner parties has become a thing!
Cooking for a crowd has always been a passion. I always say that feeding people is my love language. On this site, you will find recipes and full meal plans to feed a crowd!
Cooking is my passion!
