About MyCookingCalendar
Making home cooking easier, healthier and more enjoyable - with expert-written content, tested recipes and AI-powered tools.
Our Story
MyCookingCalendar was founded in 2025 by Bugra Sozeri, working with a small team of food and software enthusiasts based in Europe. The idea came from a simple frustration: the internet is full of recipe sites drowning in ads, and health apps that give generic advice with no connection to real food.
We wanted one place where you could browse hundreds of tested recipes, track your health goals, get AI-powered meal suggestions personalised to your ingredients and preferences, and read science-backed articles written and reviewed by our editorial team - all working together intelligently.
We launched with a focused library of curated world recipes and have grown to over 3,000 recipes from 50+ world cuisines, paired with a nutrition blog written and reviewed by our in-house editorial team. Every piece of content we publish goes through the same editorial process: research, test, review, publish.

Blog Articles
Our nutrition and health articles are researched, written and reviewed by our in-house editorial team. We aim to reference health and nutrition claims to reputable, primary sources where relevant.
We distinguish clearly between established scientific consensus and emerging research. Health and nutrition articles include a medical disclaimer: the content is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for advice from a qualified healthcare professional.
