These are a fun and delicious take on a classic quesadilla made with ground meat cooked with onions and all the yummy burger condiments put in a large flour tortilla with cheddar cheese and crispy bacon, then served with a side of burger dipping sauce.
Risotto is one of my son’s favorite foods ever, so I make it a lot and sometimes I need to mix it up a little. This corn and bacon risotto is a fun little spin on the classic. I love the richness added from the bacon fat.
I love this soup because it‘s super similar to a classic tomato soup, but has a little something extra with the added roasted red bell pepper, onions and garlic. The splash of cream before serving really cuts the acidity of the tomatoes.
This frittata is made with Italian sausage, shallot, mushrooms, yellow potatoes, sun dried tomatoes and mozzarella, then topped with fresh basil. Great served with a side salad!
This is the ultimate comfort food dinner. Made with all of the ingredients of chicken pie mixed with the scooped out insides of a baked potato, then placed back in the potato skins and baked and finished with fresh parlsey.
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!
