ABOUT TERESA: Growing up with parents who emigrated from Italy, New York Times bestselling author Teresa Giudice, the striking, tell-it-like-it-is star of Bravo’s hit television series The Real Housewives of New Jersey, had the best of both worlds: modern America outside her door, and Old World Italy in her kitchen. As a busy working mother of four young children, Teresa always makes time to make homemade meals because she learned from her own mother: “When you cook from the heart, your entire family feeds on the love.”
In her much-anticipated second cookbook FABULICIOUS! Teresa’s Italian Family Cookbook, Teresa combines her two passions—food and family—in 60 more Giudice family recipes straight from Salerno with an emphasis on preparing, serving and eating meals with the ones you love.
