I found this podcast through Didn’t I Just Feed You? It has a slightly different, more professional take on home cooking than a lot of cooking podcasts that are 100% amateur focused. The episodes have something for everyone and I have definitely picked up tips.

I had never heard of cooksmarts until I found this podcast. I’ve never tried their service but really like the podcast. Jess is very genuine and she provides good strategies for cooking. I really like when she does interviews with her members (except Lauren Davis seemed really phony...).

We discovered CookSmarts when my husband and I were first starting our career jobs working full time and needed something better than the 5-10 dishes we were making over and over again. CookSmarts has really slowed us to experiment with different foods and dishes and we love the flexibility of...Read full review »

I love the Cook Smarts podcast and have used the service for several years. I am a working mom and find the meal planning a lifesaver.

We all have to eat, and Jess and the Cook Smarts team have become my go-to friends for kitchen know-how. They never forget that many of us are functional kitchen users at best.

I’ve been using this meal plan for I believe over five years now and it has completely infiltrated into our everyday routine.

I’ve been a Cook Smarts subscriber for 4+ years and can’t imagine my life without it at this point.
