Welcome to Simple Health Recipes

Hi! I’m Sampoorna Mettilda, the heart and hands behind Simple Health Recipes.
Cooking isn’t just a skill for me it’s a way to bring happiness, health, and family together in every meal.

My Story

Born in Vaniyambadi and raised in Chennai, I find inspiration in vibrant Tamil kitchens and the comforting flavors of family gatherings. With an MA and M.Phil to my name, I bring both curiosity and care into everything I cook and share.
I live with my loving husband and our wonderful family, where every meal is a celebration of togetherness.

Growing up, my education and my family’s culinary traditions instilled in me a deep belief: food should nurture not only the body, but also the spirit. That’s the philosophy behind every recipe you’ll find here.

Why I Started Simple Health Recipes

This blog began as a journal of the wholesome recipes I love to make at home. Over time, it has become my way to help busy families, beginners, and fellow food lovers put easy yet nutritious meals on the table the kind that brings smiles, supports wellbeing, and doesn’t require hours in the kitchen.

Every recipe is lovingly tested in my home kitchen, with simple steps and real ingredients. You’ll find comforting classics, healthier twists on favorites, and desserts that brighten any day (without guilt!).

What You’ll Discover Here

  • Step by step guides for simple dishes anyone can master
  • Indian and global recipes focused on vibrant health
  • Quick meals for busy weekdays and heartwarming treats for weekends

My goal is to make cooking accessible, joyful, and rewarding—whether you’re new to the kitchen or just looking for new inspiration.
