This quick and easy bruschetta recipe from my nonna is perfect for busy May nights. Fresh, flavorful, and ready in minutes—serve it solo or with grilled tri-tip for a satisfying ‘girl dinner.’
This is a weeknight favorite once spring vegetables and herbs are in season—easy to make, light, and tasty. Once summer arrives, swap peas for zucchini, tomatoes and other summer vegetables.
One go-to dish for me at any French restaurant is mussels. Whether served with toast or fries, either way I’m sure you’ll find these to be très magnifique!

Salade Niçoise began its life as a household catch-all salad based on what was available from the garden and sitting in the pantry. The best news? It’s virtually impossible to mess up, and rules are meant to be broken. Add whatever you’d like to it—it will be tasty.
The name croque monsieur translates to “mister crunch” and this delicious French ham and cheese sandwich, made with gruyere, parmesan, ham and a simple béchamel sauce is toasted in the oven til perfectly crunchy.

Over two decades ago I ordered a Cosmopolitan at The Odeon in NYC. Maybe it was just a magical evening or how the bartender prepared it but to this day the “Cosmo” is my favorite cocktail (other than a Skinny Margarita).
I spent time in Spain during college and fell in love with paella. This is a fun dish to make for a get-together with friends or a summer BBQ. Que aproveche!
