Welcome to Hungrily Homemade. For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Rania Renno. I started Hungrily Homemade in November of 2013 as a way to showcase the uncelebrated food. The home chef. The, what David Chang would call, Ugly Delicious. Over the years i’ve many things have changed, but my love and passion for home cooked meals that just make you say “mmm…”, has not. I hope you spend some time here and get to know me through my food. I sure do hope you’ll be back for more. For those who want to know more about me- here are some fun facts!

1. I’ve lived in Saudi Arabia, in Saudi Aramco, more specifically, and traveled all over the world growing up.

2. I’m half Lebanese and half Palestinian and have a deep appreciation and love for my culture which has influenced my food.

3. I’m married to a pretty great man and have one son.

4. My parents named me Haifa when i was born and then quickly changed my name within my first month.

5. I ask everyone i meet and know the same question- “If you could eat any meal for the rest of your life, every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner (no nutritional implications) what would it be? Leave your answer below!

6. Every year I tend to fixate on a new cuisine I love, and I cook it and learn it, and cook it and learn it (rinse & repeat).
