Welcome!

Hi, I’m Carla, the recipe creator behind Adventures of a Nurse. After more than 25 years in nursing, I traded my scrubs for an apron and turned my love of cooking into a full-time food blog.

My recipes are all about easy comfort food, family favorites, and the dishes I grew up with in Central New York. You’ll find everything from simple weeknight dinners to Utica classics like Chicken Riggies and Utica Greens.

I’m glad you’re here—let’s get cooking! 💙

These were delicious! I fried and then ate the entire jar of pickles which it turns out was a mistake but they tasted so good I’m not even mad……..Katie

This was delicious! I just got the Ninji Foodie XL Grill with the air fryer. First time using it! The chicken stayed moist and tender…..Joan
