Cooking with Love, Teaching with Joy

My path to Bonicelli Cooking Club started with Bonicelli Fresh Meal Delivery, where I spent years helping thousands of people regain and maintain their health through scratch-made, original meals. That experience showed me the power of food as medicine — and built the foundation of the recipe library I still use today.

My commitment to community deepened at Bonicelli Kitchen, my beloved restaurant, where I could connect with people face to face and share the food I love. When I founded Bonicelli Cooking Club, my goal was to bring that same approach — accessible, joyful, sustainable — to a wider audience through online courses, in-person classes, and a community of women reclaiming their health through food.

Born in northern Minnesota to an Italian-American family, I learned pasta-making from my grandmother and have traveled the Mediterranean to study traditional techniques. Whether I'm teaching a sold-out class or sharing a recipe on the blog, my mission is always the same: to make the Mediterranean lifestyle accessible, joyful, and sustainable for every woman at every stage of life.
