Stromboli

Stromboli, an Italian-American favorite from Philadelphia, is like a rolled-up version of pizza. Stuffed with cheese and Italian deli meats like pepperoni, salami, and ham, it's a guaranteed crowd-pleaser—perfect for a weeknight dinner or casual game day get-together. You can make it with homemade pizza dough or grab store-bought dough for an easy shortcut—either way, it's delicious!

Big Italian Salad

This big Italian salad is my go-to for spaghetti and meatballs, pasta e fagioli, pizza, or anything else in that Italian comfort food realm. The homemade dressing is what makes it so good. Think of it as a much, much-improved version of that bottled Italian dressing sitting in your fridge door. It takes just a few minutes to make—and if you're used to the beige bottled stuff, you'll be surprised to see how fresh herbs make the vinaigrette a beautiful and vibrant green.

Tomato Soup

This tomato soup is my go-to during the chilly fall and winter months when fresh tomatoes are out of season. It's a simple recipe, using canned tomatoes and everyday pantry staples. The soup gets its creamy texture from blending the tomatoes themselves—no heavy cream needed!

Brownie in a Mug

When summer is in full swing or the holidays roll around, and the house is buzzing with kids, friends, and all the wonderful chaos they bring, I'm all about baking big batches of sweets. But once the kids are back at school and it's just Michael, the pups, and me, I definitely don't need a whole tray of brownies tempting me every time I walk through the kitchen! This microwave brownie in a mug is the perfect dose of gooey, chocolaty goodness for one. Plus, clean-up couldn't be simpler, with just one mug to wash.
