I saw these burrata ravioli at Trader Joe’s and had to try them. They were so creamy and delicious! I made a creamy sauce with shallots, burst cherry tomatoes and fresh corn, then served topped with crispy prosciutto and fresh basil.
These baked sweet potatoes are loaded with sautéed onions, celery, carrots and bell peppers with Frank’s Buffalo Sauce chicken breast and cheddar cheese, then baked again and finished with ranch dressing and fresh chives.
My husband hates mac & cheese, but I love it, so I have to think of creative ways to convince him to have it for dinner with me. Since he LOVES chili, this was the perfect compromise. Needless to say he was obsessed and even ate the leftovers the next day!
These chicken enchiladas have a little twist made with shredded bbq chicken, southwest style corn, black beans, bbq sauce mixed in with the red enchilada sauce and Colby jack cheese, then finished with ranch red onions and fresh cilantro.
This vegetarian side dish is made with roasted yellow potatoes and broccoli served over a garlic parmesan cream sauce, then tip with toasted pine nuts, fresh parsley and parmesan.
These tostadas are made with shrimp that have been marinated in mexican spices and lime, then served on a crispy tostada shell with spicy refried beans, pickled red cabbage, corn salsa and cotija cheese.
I love spring and all the vegetables it brings, so I sauteed asparagus with garlic, shallots, and peas, served with gnocchi in a creamy lemon sauce topped with fresh chives and crispy panko breadcrumbs.
These grilled sweet potatoes are served over a bed of arugula, with a fresh chimichurri, toasted pine nuts and feta cheese. This is the perfect elevated side for any grilled meat.
These lemony chicken quinoa bowls are made with herb roasted italian yellow squash, pickled red onion, cucumber, feta and fresh herbs. Such a great healthy weeknight dinner.
I was born and raised in Los Angeles in an Italian family that centered every gathering around cooking and food. My dad taught me how to cook when I was little and we would spend a lot of time together in the kitchen. He passed away when I was 21 and I took over as the cook of the family. Right before the pandemic, I retired from an 18 year career as a hairstylist in the entertainment industry to follow my dreams of teaching people how to cook and appreciate food.
I would love to hear from you!
