    Italian

    Italian food is a crowd pleaser whether you're making a family dinner or serving company. I've curated this collection with authentic recipes as many have been gathered from excellent Italian cooks and from my research while traveling in Italy. I've adapted the recipes and wrote directions that are easy to follow at home.

    Some of the favorites in my family include Pumpkin Risotto, Short Rib Ragu, and Pesto Pasta, but all the recipes below are on regular rotation at my house.
