A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Italian at heart

Hi, I’m Tracey. I may be Scottish and English by heritage, but I have always been Italian at heart.

As a mom of three, I know how fast a full day can leave you with no time to make the homemade meal you had hoped for. Italian at Heart grew from that very season of life.

I shop for the ingredients and cook your chosen dinner in your own kitchen, so your family can gather around a warm, generous meal without the planning and long hours in the kitchen.

My hope is simple: a little more time together and a dinner made from the heart.

SIMPLE FROM START TO FINISH

Here’s how it works.

    Choose your dinner.
    Pick the meal your family would enjoy most.

  2. 2

    Choose a day.
    Email me with your preferred date and any dietary needs.

  3. 3

    I shop and cook.
    I bring the planning and preparation to your kitchen.

  4. 4

    You enjoy dinner.
    Gather around the table and simply enjoy the evening. I’ll leave your kitchen the way I found it—dinner clean-up is included. Isn’t that a dream?
