Scroll down for recipes and recipe categories.
Meals generate many cherished childhood memories for me. Many of the Italian food recipes I share here are authentic, family traditions handed down through their kitchens. Although I didn't grow up with extended family living under one roof, my Grandmother, Ida (Passarelli) Bonelli and my Aunt Jo (Josephine Tessaro Passarelli - she's in the pic with me) spoke often about family members living and cooking in the same house. With many family members under one roof and no modern cooking conveniences like we have today, they basically lived in their kitchens cooking traditional Italian recipes. I genuinely love and enjoy cooking. I love to cook because I love to share and carry on my family's cooking traditions. These are their Italian recipes! The best part is that when I share them, I share the love with which they were made. It's like passing on a little piece of myself to my family and friends. So go ahead, dig through my Italian food recipes and see what you can find to cook for your family tonight! You can take pride knowing you are creating food from my family to yours, with love.
