Italian recipes are often thought of as carb-heavy cheese bombs, and while those recipes can certainly be found, it’s a bit of a misconception overall. Traditional Italian food has regional differences but generally celebrates fresh, seasonal ingredients, so it’s often loaded with vegetables and healthy oils. Recipes are accented by the abundant herbs and spices that can be found growing along the Mediterranean coast. You can use these spices and herbs to reflect your favorite flavors of Italy, or try one of our ready-to-use Italian seasoning blends and start cooking!
