Let’s cook together!

Whether you want to learn new European food recipes or simply need inspiration, you’ve come to the right place. My goal is to teach you how to cook simple foods from Europe using basic products everyone has at home.

I know how wasteful it is to buy exotic ingredients that are uncommon in your culture and cuisine, only to use them once and never again. 

You don’t need to spend money on expensive products, go to fancy restaurants, or attend extensive cooking courses to enjoy good food. Making food is an intuitive experience, and I’m here to make it a bit easier for you. So let’s cook together and Skanaus!

Meet the face behind Messy Feast

Hey! My name is Egle. I’m a freelance copywriter and an avid lover of improv theater, who has recently discovered a passion for cooking. I’ve spent the past 4 years living in sunny Tenerife, where I discovered my passion for Spanish and European foods and cooking. From humble beginnings of destroying my kitchen and messing up countless meals, I started to experiment with different flavors, tastes, colors, products, spices, and herbs. Slowly, cooking became my hobby and passion.


I can’t wait to share all my favorite recipes, ideas, and cooking tips with you. Although I love food from all around the world and there’s no cuisine I shy away from, Messy Feast is all about simple and delicious European foods and dishes. Skanaus!
