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! 💙
