About

I’m Alex Fotopoulos.  Welcome to my Free Recipe Journal Cookbook.  I hope you enjoy some of my free recipes.  I welcome suggestions of other ingredients I should consider and also welcome input of other recipes you enjoy.  I don’t pay for your recipes, but will be happy to link back to your site if you have one (get it, “free”).

My cooking is influenced by my heritage.  I’m the grandson of a Greek immigrant on my Dad’s side and a middle Georgia farmer on my Mom’s side.  I grew up in Atlanta, GA and like to mix all the flavors I’ve tasted from my Greek side to my Southern USA style and even what I’ve tasted living in a large American city.

Feel free to leave comments for suggestions or email me (alex [AT] free-recipes-journal.com).  If you have a recipe you’d like to share, please email me and I’ll post it and list you as the cook.

I have various categories listed on the right sidebar.  Most of these are pretty straight forward.  A couple of extra details are in order though. 

• Simple to me means that these recipes are quick to make and the measurements don’t have to be exact. 
• Healthy to me means that these recipes are low in saturated fat and are not fried.  They also have fruits or vegetables in them.
• Kid Friendly on this site means that kids are likely to eat it.  I make no claims to allergic reactions to ingredients such as nuts.
