Hi, I’m Jennifer, Welcome to DeBellaLicious!
I get my love of food and cooking from my family. My grandmother Dotty was an amazing cook. She cooked old school with lots of butter and love. Many of her dishes are influenced by her Albanian heritage. My mom and dad were also great in the kitchen. Dad likes his traditional Italian dishes. Mom was adventurous and tried lots of new things. My favorite memories are Saturday morning family breakfasts and Sunday dinners with the whole extended family. I am excited to share some of our family magic with you.
These days you can find me in my New England home cooking up everything from family favorites to my own creations. While I love a Chicken Kiev oozing with butter now and then, I tend to lean toward healthier choices most of the time. You will see a happy mix of options here with lots of fresh herbs from our garden.
I share my love of food and cooking with my fellow-foodie husband, John, and two step-sons. When I’m in the kitchen, you can count on my two babies being right under foot: Somer, our spunky 9 year old Lab and Autumn, our sweet 4 year old Golden. They are the two best sous chefs around!
Thank you for stopping by and happy cooking!
