About

I’m Sam. The recipes here are inspired by a lifetime of Italian home cooking, traditions and all of the things I love most. Any time I have been lost, I have found myself here in the kitchen. My goal is to share seasonal real food recipes for the home cook & their family and create a haven in the kitchen.

Super Bowl recipe roundup!! Comment “recipes” for a link to alll of my favorite game day recipes. Big Mac Sliders - game day eats worth making! Tailor it to your preference, but we are team lots of raw white onion & extra pickles. I know there’s Big Mac purists out there “there’s no ketchup in Mac sauce,” but I love ketchup mayo AND mustard on a burger so my sauce has got it all. Orange Sesame Salmon Bowls. Yes it’s 10 degrees and getting colder, but if you close your eyes and eat this you WILL remember warmer days are coming. Mandarin oranges are at their juiciest and are SO beautiful right now they look like a painting of an orange!!! Cut one open and you will forget that your hands almost froze off trying to get a coffee this morning These Double Chocolate Zucchini Muffins are so moist & chocolatey. I try never to be that person who makes a health food and says “ooo it tastes like cake!!!” when it is actually not cake at all!! But THIS recipe - seriously I may even do a cake version. PACKED with amazing things like coconut oil, greek yogurt, a whole zucchini & honey. And chocolate, of course chocolate. Healthy and tastes amazing. Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies - soft baked & addicting. Like they are just made to fill a whole box & be eaten like chips idk I don’t make the rules!!
