I am so obsessed with Italian food and culture. I’ve watched the movie “Under the Tuscan Sun” with Diane Lane at least a dozen times. With the holiday season coming up, I am sure to be making some of my Italian favorites like pignoli nut cookies and lasagna. But sometimes I like to enjoy an Italian meal without so much fuss. That’s when I pull Bertolli meals for 2 out of the freezer. They are so delicious and perfect for those nights when just my daughter and I are having dinner together. Those nights when we just want to relax and enjoy a simple meal.

Don’t just eat. Mangia.

These meals are incredibly simple to prepare. Just 10 minutes in the skillet and you have a delicious Italian meal. I usually add some bread sticks and a salad for a complete meal.

This is Mangia. It means eat — the authentic Italian way. The Bertolli way.

I like to set the mood by placing tealights into a few jars. You can use canning jars or empty spaghetti sauce jars. I love the rustic look. The idea is to keep it simple.

Don’t set the table, set the mood. Don’t just make dinner, make memories.

Don’t forget some Italian wine. I love a good Chianti!

It’s so nice to end the day with a delicious Italian meal, laughing, and catching up with someone you care about.

Francesco Bertolli wanted to provide more than mere ingredients for meals. He sought to provide ingredients for robust meal experiences that awaken the senses, enliven conversations, and inspire us to be in the moment.
