ManaCooks is an online treasure box of everyday magic. Simple practices and recipes to keep a family happy, healthy and strong.

Have a look, see what you like and let me know if we filled a pot with comfort and nourishment at your home tonight.
Welcome! I’m Christina, a Greek-Irish Athens-based lover of books and food. As we started our family, I found myself developing a keen interest in traditional kitchens, nourishing meals, home grown food and lazy, slow delights as well as ways to get dinner on the table on busy days in no time flat.
ManaCooks is currently growing so sign up to our monthly email list for tips and news, also a great way to keep our seasonal recipes handy on the go. I’d love to hear from you so drop me a line anytime: delicious@manacooks.com
Enjoy!
