Hi, I’m an Italian food blogger passionate about sharing simple, wholesome recipes inspired by tradition. I love helping you create dishes that bring joy, love, and connection to your table.
Hello, Italian food enthusiasts and home cooks! I'm Jenn Laprade, the heart behind Italy In Your Kitchen. My passion for Italian cooking stems from my childhood, growing up in a lively Italian family where every celebration revolved around the dining table. For us, food was never just about eating—it was a tradition, an expression of love, and a way to bring everyone together.
I truly believe that the magic of Italian cooking lies in its simplicity, allowing the quality of each ingredient to shine. With a deep respect for tradition, my recipes blend timeless classics with modern twists, making them approachable for home cooks of all levels. Whether it’s a slow-simmered ragù, a rustic focaccia, or a contemporary take on tiramisu, my mission is to share the beauty and versatility of Italian cuisine.
Through my content, I hope to inspire you to not only cook but to embrace the Italian tradition of food as a centerpiece for celebration and connection. Let’s keep this beautiful heritage alive - bringing the warmth, joy, and timeless charm of Italian cooking into our homes. Buon appetito!
My husband and I eloped to San Gimignano, Tuscany—just the two of us.
One of my passions is traveling, and every trip is a food adventure.
I’m a proud mom to two teenagers: one lives on the basketball court, and the other is a race car driver.
Hiking, yoga, and strength training. No matter where I’m traveling, I always find an outdoor hike to explore.
In the heart of every Italian kitchen, food is love and tradition served on a plate.
