Monthly Featured Chef: Giada DeLaurentis

We fell in love with her years ago when she brought us Everyday Italian. We filled our pasta bowls with countless pasta recipes in her Everyday Pasta, and our families sung praises when we cooked from Giada's Family Dinners. She is Giada Delaurentiis, wildly popular Food Network superstar and author of eight bestselling cookbooks!

Nowadays Giada is known, not only for her Italian recipes, but also for her fresh California-style recipes and also her healthy recipes and lifestyle. Her latest book, Happy Cooking, just hit the shelves last month.

No doubt we will be Happy Cooking the recipes of Giada Delaurentiis this week! Please make and post your dish by Sunday, December 13th! Feel free to share your favorite Giada recipes in your post. Please remember to link a thumbnail image and leave a comment after linking so we don't miss out on your dish.

Nibbles & Noshes

It's the time of year for gatherings and celebrations of all sorts--the perfect time for nibbling and noshing with friends and family. It's all the better if some of those Nibbles and Noshes are healthier options. So this week, make any Ellie Krieger recipe for appetizers or small plate dishes suitable for sharing. There are plenty of recipes to choose from, dips to small bites, elegant to casual... whatever suits your style and occasion.
