Chicken is a very good choice for a kids meal: delicate taste, lean meat, good source of animal proteins and with unexpected anti-inflammatory properties (to keep in mind when it’s cold season…). That’s why I like to find easy, fun and tasty ways to cook it like in today’s Parmesan cheese with Panko breadcrumbs baked chicken […]
My mom is in town (yeah!!!!!!) and she is the polenta expert. She knows how to perfectly cook it and she also really likes it. I decided to let her prepare the polenta (she’s the best!!) and I played around the traditional recipe to prepare something fun and inviting for the kids: mini polenta pizzas!!! […]
Bechamel sauce or white sauce is one of the basic sauce in the French and Italian cousine, it’s also one of the easiest sauces to prepare from scratch. So easy that it almost impossible to fail 🙂 It will take you only 10 minutes to prepare and the final result will have NO comparison with […]

Welcome to Italy!As promised, we were able to shoot few recipes during our Italian holiday 🙂 We are in Ospedaletti, in a region called Liguria, northern Italy, next to the French border. My family has a beach apartment there and I’ve been going there since I was born. Almost every summer of my life has […]
I know, it’s summer…and I know, Mac&Cheese has not a very “healthy and light diet” fame…but “June Gloom” has not totally gone yet (cloudy, overcast skies with cool temperatures in the morning and evenings..) and I was in a “healthy homemade comfort food” mood.
