My name is Melissa and I am the author of Keeping it Simple Italian. Keeping it Simple Italian is a recipe site that features Italian American recipes, traditional Italian recipes, and modern Italian recipes.
Our goal is to show you how amazing and simple Italian food can be and to also highlight amazing Italian food whether it is traditional from Italy or adapted over the years by immigrants.
I'm an Italian American and grew up eating and cooking Italian American and traditional Italian food. I have enjoyed traveling and visiting different parts of Italy and learning about simple Italian cooking.
I really enjoy seeing how so many recipes are the same as what I grew up with in the U.S. and how so many recipes have changed.
What to try first
If you are new here, you may want to check out our popular Italian American meat sauce or Italian brownies.
If you are looking for a quick meal, our angel hair pasta with herbs and tomatoes is so good!
We hope you enjoy the recipes!
