Hi, I'm Bella

Sourdough by night, spreadsheets by day

West Coastie Kitchen is what happens when a full-time job, full-time training schedule, and a very active sourdough starter collide. I'm just a Pacific Northwest girl in her 20s who bakes because it's the most meditative part of my week — and I want to share recipes real people with real schedules can actually pull off.

Think Pacific Northwest blues, greens and mustard yellows, lazy sourdough loaves that anyone can bake, high-protein dinners for crazy busy weeks, and refined sugar-free treats for when I want to feel good, not just eat good. Good food, good mood.

What you'll find here

The pillars of my kitchen

Sourdough

My loaves, discard recipes, and the super lazy sourdough bread recipe that anyone can do — no experience required.

Easy & High-Protein Dinners

Built for a girl who works a full-time job and trains like an athlete: quick, healthy dinners for your busiest weeks.

Baking

Everything else out of my oven — muffins, mochi bites, and whatever I'm experimenting with next.

Holiday Baking

When the holidays roll around, this is where all my seasonal bakes will live.

Refined Sugar-Free

My every day go-to. If I'm baking for a party, sure, there's sugar — but day to day, it's honey and maple syrup so I feel good.
