Each Saturday I try share something I learned along the way. Today I realized: who better to learn from than my sweet, awesome, little Italian Mom. I'm visiting with my parents this week and no matter how old I get – a day with my Mom is always a learning experience.
I include recipes and videos each week on my Friday Foodie blog day but since so much of my cooking is inspired by my little Momma, I had to share a few today. As you will see below, my Mom has the most amazing garden and uses as much as she can each day for her everyday recipes.
Enjoy!
