Hi there, I’m Fiola Bennett.
Welcome to FoodLifeLove — where mindful recipes meet daily rhythms and meaningful connection. I’m so glad you’re here in this space, where we explore how the meals we cook can nourish so much more than just our appetites.
My Story
My journey with food has always been about connection—connection to ingredients, to the rhythms of my days, and to the people around my table. I started FoodLifeLove from a simple but profound belief: that our daily cooking is where food, life, and love beautifully intersect.
Here, we move beyond just recipes. We explore how cooking can become a practice of mindfulness, how meals can fit seamlessly into real lives, and how sharing food can deepen our relationships. This isn’t about perfect plating or complicated techniques—it’s about finding joy and meaning in the everyday act of feeding ourselves and those we care about.

My Cooking Philosophy
Food that honors the connection between plate and life should be:
Nourishing – For body, mind, and emotional wellbeing
Intentional – Prepared with presence and purpose
Adaptable – Flexible enough for real schedules and changing needs
Connective – Creating opportunities for togetherness and care
Sustainable – Practices you can maintain and enjoy long-term
Whether you’re seeking recipes that simplify busy evenings, looking to develop a more mindful cooking practice, or wanting to create meals that become meaningful moments of connection, you’ll find a welcoming home here.
Every recipe, tip, and insight comes from my own journey of discovering how cooking can be a powerful way to care for ourselves and connect with others.
