Recipes
Eating healthy is an important part of overall well-being. From my Sicilian kitchen to yours, these recipes feature healthy alternatives to your usual fare.
Quick and Easy recipes can be prepared and cooked in under 30 minutes.
If you enjoy cooking, the recipes under Mama’s in the Kitchen are meant to be prepared as a family affair or with friends. Learn to make gluten free or grain free alternatives to homemade pizza, pasta, bread and so much more!
Recipes are adjusted for high altitude cooking as I live in Denver. (high altitude cooking requires higher cooking temps, less baking time and modified ingredients, so you’ll have to experiment!)
