Hi, I’m Elena—most people call me Ele. Feel free to do the same.

I created FoodByEle to make traditional cooking and baking more nourishing, without losing flavor or texture. You’ll find breads, baked goods, and everyday meals shaped by fermentation and ingredient experiments. I bake with whey protein, oat fiber, psyllium husk, inulin, vital wheat gluten, and alternative sweeteners for recipes that pack more protein, more fiber, and often fewer carbs. I keep every recipe healthy, satisfying, and truly delicious.

Meal prep is self-care—and one of the most practical ways we care for the people around us.

I test every recipe in my kitchen (often more than once) until it feels just right. I hope you enjoy them.
