About Me

Lisa M
Brooklyn, New York, United States
I love to eat, but I love to cook even more! I come from an emphatic Italian family that still has Sunday dinners together. There's always food on the table for 30, even if we're just 8. My grandma's passion for cooking & family is very much alive in me, and I plan to keep it that way. I try to make a healthy spin on her recipes & explore new recipes that will become family favorites.

From my kitchen to yours...stare insieme e mangiare!
