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.

A LITTLE LESS TO DO

Each dinner generously serves 4–6, with the kind of leftovers everyone is happy to find tomorrow.
