Ryan Cooper, Efficiency & Testing Coordinator
I’ve spent the past six years obsessed with making cooking easier, leading to my role as Efficiency & Testing Coordinator at Low Carb Recipe Journal. My food science and ingredient analysis background helps me create low-carb recipes that actually work in real kitchens—without fancy equipment or chef-level skills.
My journey started at Mountain View Culinary Institute in kitchen operations, where I became fascinated by why some recipes fail and others succeed. I discovered my talent for spotting unnecessarily complicated cooking processes and simplifying them without losing quality. Working with restaurant chains and meal delivery services, I helped cut preparation times by 35% while maintaining delicious results.
I’ve shared my systematic approach with culinary schools and food science programs, developing testing methods now used by several meal prep companies. My “precision without perfection” philosophy drives me—amazing results shouldn’t require professional training or expensive gadgets.
This mindset stems from my love of competitive cooking and ultralight backpacking, where every step must count and simplicity is everything. I apply these same principles when testing recipes, ensuring success with standard home kitchen tools.
When I’m not testing endless recipe variations in my Denver kitchen, I’m hiking Colorado’s trails, building custom kitchen storage solutions in my woodworking shop, or spending time with my three rescue cats—Sage, Basil, and Pepper.
At Low Carb Recipe Journal, I ensure every published recipe has been thoroughly tested for reliability and ease. My goal is simple: turn complex nutritional goals into achievable daily wins that build your confidence in the kitchen.
