I love this time of year, when fresh produce and herbs are coming in from the garden....
Cooking with fresh ingredients just tastes and hits different and I love it!
I also happen to be a fan of Italian food and one of my favorites is a secret family recipe that we have used for about as long as I can remember. In my house growing up, as my sister got older, she became the absolute best at making this recipe and to this day I messaged her to ask for it. Some things never change:)
This is a secret sauce, quite literally, and once you get it simmering on your stove and that aroma begins to fill your house......oh my goodness!
