À propos de moi

Hi, I’m Courtney – also known as “Mamas” around here.

I’m Courtney – a wife, mom to an awesome kid, and a proud dog owner. Since 2014, my adventures have taken me to many countries, and along the way I fell in love with how food can tell a story. Every place I visited had its own comfort dishes, little cooking tricks, and flavors that made me want to come home and try recreating them in my own kitchen.

ManThatLooksGood.com is my recipe blog – my little corner of the internet where I share the kind of food I actually cook for real life: busy weekdays, random cravings, family dinners, and those “I want something good but I don’t want to overthink it” moments. I’m not here to be fancy or intimidating. I’m here to make cooking feel doable, fun, and worth it – even if you don’t consider yourself an expert.

This blog is all about delicious, easy-to-make recipes. I aim to make cooking enjoyable, especially for those who, like me, may not be expert chefs but have a love for trying new things in the kitchen. I’m the kind of cook who reads a recipe and immediately thinks: “Okay… but can we make this simpler? Can we make it faster? Can we make it taste even better?”

While I adore cooking, I truly believe delicious meals don’t have to be time-consuming. On Man, That Looks Good!, I focus on quick, easy, and flavorful recipes with a lot of variety — meals that feel like a win, not a project. You’ll see comfort food, weeknight dinners, easy desserts, and the occasional fun twist when I’m feeling adventurous.

So why the name “Man, That Looks Good!”? Because that’s honestly the moment I’m chasing. It’s what I want you (and me) to say when dinner hits the table — before we even take a bite. It’s that little burst of pride when something comes together, smells amazing, and looks like you ordered it… even though you made it at home.

Picture instant pot carnitas tacos one night, vegan beet steak burgers the next, and salted caramel brownies for dessert. Every time you desire a certain dish, you’ll find a quick and easy recipe that will make you say, “Man, That Looks Good!” Join me on this excited journey.

And just so you know what you’re getting here: I care a lot about recipes being clear and practical. I try to write them the way I’d text them to a friend — what to do, what to watch out for, and how to make it work with what you’ve got. When I can, I include helpful tips, simple substitutions, and steps that keep things approachable. My goal is that you can scroll through a post and feel confident, not overwhelmed.

If you ever try a recipe, I’d love to hear how it turned out for you — truly. Your feedback helps me make the instructions clearer and the recipes better. So whether you’re here for a quick dinner idea, a new favorite dessert, or something fun to try this weekend… welcome. I’m really glad you found your way to my kitchen.
