HI, WELCOME TO OUR JUNGLE KITCHEN
We are so glad you are here! We will show you how easy it is to use fresh produce in your daily meals; it doesn’t have to take long at all. And not only are the recipes kid friendly we make sure the rest of the family loves them too.
We aim to post new recipes every three days. Breakfast, dinner, desserts, smoothies, snacks.
ABOUT MARIELLE
Marielle comes up with the recipes and the content. She also does the photography for all of Familicious’ images.
That is her part time job… her full time job is being a mom to Jack, age 8, and Cooper, age 6, two little jungle boys.
Originally from Amsterdam, she moved to Nicaragua, San Juan del Sur in 2004 with her partner in crime Marc. They designed, built and ran a small ecolodge on the pacific coast of Nicaragua. They started small and humble doing everything themselves; cleaning, making beds, groceries and.. cooking family style meals. Every day she would put healthy, super fresh meals on the table for their guests to enjoy.
Just recently they sold the hotel to free up more time to focus on family. Being creative is what Marielle loves to do: she designs clothes for her kids, she makes most of the home decor for their rental units (if you are in the neighborhood come stay with us! Check us out on Instagram) and she cooks. And she shares it all with you.
THE RECIPES
We create recipes using fresh local produce that is in season. We try to stay away from packaged and processed food as much as we can. All our recipes are quick, healthy and easy. Perfect for a family with young children.
We let the kids help out a lot of the times. The more they are involved in food preparation, the more likely they will eat what you put on the table. We mention in every recipe when, where and how they can help out.
