About
Welcome to Evette Eats, I’m so happy you’re here.
I’m someone who finds joy in the simple things: a home-cooked meal, a cozy evening at home, and spending time with the people I love most. I’m a true homebody and love being surrounded by my little family — my supportive husband, Diego, my beautiful daughter, Elisa, and our two cats, Salem and Kiki.
When I’m not in the kitchen creating recipes, you’ll probably find me exploring my hometown of San Diego, where I was born and raised, or enjoying the little moments that make everyday life special.
Evette Eats is a reflection of the things I love most: family, nourishing food, and creating meals that bring people together.
My Health Journey
My passion for health and nutrition began through my own personal journey. For years, I struggled with stomach discomfort, bloating, and feeling constantly tired and sluggish. After visiting doctors and trying different approaches, I realized I wanted to take a deeper look at how my everyday choices were affecting the way I felt.
I began learning more about the connection between food, lifestyle, and overall well-being. By making small, sustainable changes and focusing on nourishing my body with wholesome foods, I experienced incredible changes — not only did my digestive issues improve, but I also lost 40 pounds and gained a better understanding of what truly makes me feel my best.
During my time at San Diego State University, I studied communication while also taking courses related to exercise and nutrition. Through my education and personal experience, I discovered a passion for combining my love of connecting with others with my interest in health and wellness.
My Food Philosophy
I believe food should nourish your body while still bringing joy to your life.
My approach focuses on eating more whole foods, choosing minimally processed ingredients, and creating balanced meals that are both nutritious and satisfying. I believe healthy eating doesn’t have to mean restriction or perfection — it’s about making mindful choices, finding balance, and building habits that you can enjoy long-term.
Through Evette Eats, I hope to inspire others to feel confident in the kitchen and discover how enjoyable nourishing your body can be.
A Note From My Kitchen
Every recipe you find on Evette Eats comes from my own kitchen — not from AI.
I take the time to thoughtfully choose and create recipes that I genuinely love. Many are inspired by nostalgic childhood meals, family favorites, or dishes I regularly enjoy making in my own home.
Every photo you see was cooked, styled, photographed, and edited by me. I do not use AI-generated images or fake food photography. What you see is a real meal made with real ingredients in my kitchen.
A lot of love, time, and effort goes into every recipe I share. My hope is that when you visit Evette Eats, you feel the care and intention behind every dish.
What You’ll Find Here
On Evette Eats, you’ll find wholesome recipes, simple meal inspiration, and practical tips to help you make more mindful choices in your everyday life.
Whether you’re looking for a comforting family meal, a nourishing recipe, or inspiration for your own health journey, I hope this space encourages you to slow down, enjoy the process, and eat with intention.
Thank you for being here and supporting my little corner of the internet.
Stay nourished, stay inspired, and eat with intention.

OUR TEAM
At Evette Eats, our team is small, but our love for good food is big. What started in our own kitchen has grown into a collection of wholesome, comforting recipes made for everyday cooking. We’re passionate about creating delicious food made with simple, quality ingredients and sharing the recipes we genuinely love with you.
Evette is the creator, recipe developer, author, photographer, and editor behind Evette Eats. She is the heart behind everything you see here, from creating and testing recipes in her kitchen to photographing, editing, and writing each one. Evette Eats is a reflection of her love for good food and the joy of sharing it with others.
Meet Diego, Evette’s husband and her biggest supporter behind the scenes. He’s always there to lend a hand, share his honest opinion, and—most importantly—taste-test the recipes coming out of our kitchen. From everyday meals to new creations, Diego is a big part of the love and encouragement behind Evette Eats.
Meet Salem, our resident kitchen supervisor and cleanup crew. He’s always in the kitchen watching closely while we cook, and whenever something hits the floor, he’s right there to help clean it up—usually by eating it. He may not be much of a chef, but he takes his job as our official scrap collector very seriously and is an important part of the Evette Eats team.
Meet Kiki, our second kitchen supervisor and Salem’s partner in crime. She’s usually close by while we’re cooking, watching everything we do and waiting for her chance to investigate any dropped crumbs or scraps. She’s always happy to lend a paw when it comes to keeping the kitchen clean.
