I wanted to take a minute to re-introduce myself to all the new faces on here! 👋

I was born in Naples and grew up in the Valtellina in northern Italy.

In 2003 I moved to Vancouver, British Columbia to follow the big love of my life, my now husband of over 17 years.

Homemade Italian food has always been a big part of my culture. I learned how to cook at a very young age - with passion - from my mom, nonna and all of my aunts.

When one of my friends asked me to teach her to how to make an authentic Italian Lasagna, I said yes and my new business venture, Bella Cibo, was born.

"Bella Cibo" in Italian translates to "Beautiful Food" in English so it was the perfect umbrella name for my Italian cooking empire which now includes:
🍝 In-person cooking classes.
🍝 Virtual cooking classes.
🍝 Mamma Marzia merchandise.
🍝 "Cooking with Mamma Marzia" cookbook.

Thank you so much for sharing this space with me. I can't wait to continue to inspire you to try new dishes and sprinkle a little bit of love with each recipe! ❤️

Unless otherwise indicated in the recipe, always add your cooked pasta to your sauce and toss everything together. This maximizes flavour in every bite! 🍽

In Italy, Caprese Salad is usually served like antipasto or as a side dish. It's the perfect dish for a hot summer day.

To make this dish extra delicious, I suggest you use a good extra virgin olive oil and a good mozzarella, the one that comes in water.

Follow this recipe and challenge yourself by making it for your family and friends. Most of the time. my mantra is: the simpler the dish, the better. 😉

You can find this recipe and information about my cookbook on my website (link in bio).

Remember to add a sprinkle of love into every recipe. ❤️

The gnocchi (pronounced nyok-ee) go way back to Ro

The gnocchi (pronounced nyok-ee) go way back to Roman times. They were made from semolina dough, mixed with eggs.

Roman legions spread the dish throughout the the European region where they have conquered and it became a peasant delicacy as the gnocchi was inexpensive, easy to prepare, and filling.

Gnocchi developed into different variations since then.

At first they existed with different ingredients such as squash and breadcrumbs, made of ordinary wheat flour or cornmeal.

Then they came with cheese and potatoes. But it didn’t become the potato dumplings we know today until the 16th century when potatoes were introduced to Europe.

The potato gnocchi actually originated in Northern Italy, where the cooler climate was better suited for growing potatoes rather than grain.

You can find several gnocchi recipes in my cookbook, Cooking with Mamma Marzia. Link in bio for more delicious details.

Frittata Rolls, the perfect finger food for the hot summer days.
I made these amazing rolls every summer or every time I want to make something different than a frittata.
They are light, easy and also Keto 🤣
One of my followers told me that 🥰
I used cream cheese and prosciutto cotto but use anything that you like.
My daughter requested smoked salmon, cream cheese and rucola so I will make that tomorrow.
These are also a perfect lunch idea for our kids, no mess so they are ok.
For the recipe watch the video
Buona Domenica/ Happy Sunday
