Italian food was really popular in my house growing up- my mom’s homemade spaghetti is still a family fave we all ask her to make on birthdays! Up until I was 26, I always ordered spaghetti marinara with melted mozzarella on top in restaurants, until Dave recommended I try chicken parmesan.

It took a while for the different flavors to grow on me, but now it’s at the top of my all-time favorite foods list. Here’s how I make it at home:
