From successful Oxnard, CA Chef Michelle Kenney, every dish in LA DOLCE VITA: RECIPES FOR LIVING THE SWEET LIFE offers something to tantalize your taste buds, whether classic Italian favorites, modern California fare or a union of both.
Savor classics like Pasta Carbonara, Chicken Marsala, Gnocchi and Tiramisu, with most coming straight from an Italian GrandmotherÕs recipes box. Or try Italian with a modern twist such as Meat & Polenta Kabobs, Pumpkin Risotto, Orange Fennel Salad and Caramelized Banana Pouches, just to name a few. With recipes categorized into menus, such as Harvest Season, Cocktail Party and Romantic Dinner for Two, the food pairing is already done for you. Every recipe comes either from Michelle's restaurant, her familyÕs personal collection or her own repertoire. Enjoy these delicious dishes in the Italian spirit, with friends and family.
