Nonna's Kitchen      Recipes from a Sicilian/Italian Heritage

These pages are dedicated to the pursuit of eating well. These recipes have been lovingly gathered from within our family and from our friends. They represent recipes and traditions from the Nonna’s (grandmothers) of Italy . We hope you try a few and enjoy! We invite you to share with all of us your favorite recipes that include Olive Oil. Email them to us and we will include them on our website. Any special stories that go along with the recipes would be fun for all of us to read as well. We will be happy to give you, your family and your story name recognition on our web site if you would like.

Studies continue to show us that the addition of olive oil in our diets and the eating of a Mediterranean diet is heart, health, and we think soul enhancing. Mangia!
