TikTok I’m happy it did, I like it! Danielle

This all started by me getting excited (knowing me, probably overly excited) posting food pictures on Instagram. Randomly, I hash-tagged one of my home cooked meals “danimade.” I kept doing so…eventually my friends started referring to my cooking as “danimade” and it sort of stuck. Saying that, I’d like to think whatever anyone can take from here, try to make it your own. Friends always ask for r

ecipes, but to be honest with you most of the time it’s just whatever happened in kitchen that day. That’s what I like about cooking, you can really do whatever you want. So when people tell me they “can’t cook,” that’s just silly, anyone can. Sure, it takes some practice like anything else, but once you give it some time and play it becomes natural and easy. Sometimes it can be hard to give an exact measurement or description of how something is cooked, so I might give some casual instruction in my recipes. Let’s think of my recipes more as guidelines. Play and have fun, not as much can go wrong as you think. Make it your own, then you can add your name in the blank ” ____made.” :)

Good luck!

This is the pasta that raised me. 🥦
Pasta Broccoli is one of the most nostalgic meals from my childhood, and another example of cucina povera: simple ingredients, smart technique, and full-on comfort.

The broccoli gets boiled first, then chopped and sautéed in garlicky olive oil until it becomes the sauce. Using the same water to cook the pasta adds back nutrients and flavor, plus, one less pot to clean. Toss it all together with a little pasta water and Parmesan cheese until it’s glossy, cheesy, and totally cozy.

This dish is fast, budget-friendly, beginner-friendly, and so satisfying. If you’ve never tried it, this is your sign. Save it and give it a go this week.💚

Happy AirFryDay! ✨

Today I’m using the Magnifique Combo Air Fryer a little differently by starting with the Slow Cook function, then finishing with Air Fry for crispy, caramelized edges. It gives you tender, juicy shredded chicken with the best texture. You can also make this with pork or beef!

Slow Cook Chicken Carnitas

Ingredients:

* 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
* Juice of 1 orange
* Juice of 1 lime
* 2 tbsp olive oil
* 1 tsp salt
* 1/2 tsp black pepper
* 1 tsp garlic powder
* 1 tsp ground cumin
* 1 tsp dried oregano

Directions:

1. Add the chicken to the Magnifique Combo Air Fryer and season with the salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin, and oregano.
2. Pour in the orange and lime juice, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat.
3. Slow Cook on High for 2 hours, or until the chicken is tender and easily shreds.
4. Shred the chicken with two forks and mix it back into the juices.
5. For crispy carnitas, spread the shredded chicken in the air fryer basket and Air Fry for a few minutes until the edges are golden and crisp. The crisping is great when using pork or beef. 👌🏼👌🏼 With chicken breast, just watch to not dry out. Thighs are more forgiving.

Serve in tacos, rice bowls, salads, lettuce wraps, or meal prep containers. So simple and packed with flavor!

🥔 Sheet Pan Sausage, Potatoes & Rapini with a Miami Latin Twist

Taking inspiration from Dena Fenza -🇮🇹🇺🇸Mamma🧿 with the classic Italian sausage pinwheel paired potatoes + rapini, I LOVE her post about turning this classic into a sheet pan dinner. I couldn’t wait to make her recipe but my Miami grocery stores are different from her Long Island ones 😅 so I’m giving it a Latin spin with an Argentine-style pinwheel sausage and fresh chimichurri. One pan, easy, and SO good.

What you’ll need:
• 1 coil Argentine-style pinwheel sausage (salchicha parrillera)
• 1 ½ lbs gold potatoes, cubed
• 1 bunch rapini (broccoli rabe), trimmed
• 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• Salt + pepper to taste
• Optional: chili flakes + lemon wedges
• Fresh chimichurri for serving (recipe below)

How to make it:
1️⃣ Preheat oven to 425°F.
2️⃣ Toss potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, smoked paprika, salt + pepper. Spread on half of a sheet pan.
3️⃣ Place the sausage pinwheel on the other half. Roast 30 min, flipping potatoes halfway.
4️⃣ Remove sausage. Add rapini to the empty side, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with salt + pepper. Place sausage on top of rapini.
5️⃣ Roast another 10 min until rapini wilts and potatoes are golden.
6️⃣ Blend up a quick chimichurri (if you haven’t already) and drizzle over everything before serving.

🌿 Classic Chimichurri

• 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 2 tbsp fresh oregano, finely chopped (or 1 tsp dried)
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• ½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
• ¼ cup red wine vinegar
• ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Salt + freshly cracked black pepper to taste

How to make it:
1️⃣ Finely chop the parsley, oregano, and garlic.
2️⃣ Mix with red pepper flakes, vinegar, olive oil, salt + pepper.
3️⃣ Let it sit at least 20–30 minutes so the flavors meld. ‼️Tip: Don’t blend it into a puree chimichurri should have texture. A quick pulse in a food processor is fine, but chopping by hand gives the best authentic texture.

✨ Save this for your next easy sheet pan dinner!

Happy Air FryDay! Hack: Use kitchen shears to quickly cut chicken then season. No need to dirty a cutting board and have extra cleanup or time marinating. Golden, crispy chicken nuggets made in the air fryer.

How to:

Cut 1 lb of chicken breast into bite-sized pieces, season with salt and garlic powder, drizzle with olive oil, and toss with about 1/4 cup of Italian breadcrumbs (or panko). Preheat air fryer. Spread into an even layer in your air fryer. Air fry at 380°F for 8 minutes. Toss or shake halfway. That’s it! Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside.

💥 Try it with paprika or oregano
💥 Skip the breadcrumbs for a “naked” or gluten free chicken nugget
💥 Great for meal prep, snacking, or tossing on a salad

Amatriciana is a must-try pasta in Rome. It has simple ingredients, bold flavor, and deeply rooted in Lazio’s culinary traditions. When traveling in Italy, always look for dishes that are native to the region and you’ll taste ingredients at their very best. In Rome, don’t miss classics like Cacio e Pepe, Carbonara, and Gricia. They all showcasing pecorino Romano cheese in unique ways.

Here’s how to make Amatriciana at home:

🇮🇹 Ingredients:
- 1 lb bucatini (traditional), rigatoni, or spaghetti
- 3 ½ oz guanciale diced (this can be hard to find if you need a substitute try pancetta)
- 1 ½ cups crushed San Marzano tomatoes
- ½ cup pecorino Romano, grated
- 1 red chili pepper (or pinch of red pepper flakes)
- salt to taste

🇮🇹 Instructions:
1. Boil water and cook pasta until al dente. In a large pan, render the guanciale over medium heat until crispy. No need to add olive oil with a good guanciale bc it releases plenty of flavorful fat.
2. Stir in tomatoes and chili, then simmer 10–15 minutes until slightly thickened. Toss pasta in the sauce, adding a splash of pasta water if needed for a silky texture.
3. Serve immediately with pecorino Romano on top.

✨ Travel tip: In Rome, Amatriciana is traditionally made with guanciale, not pancetta, so order it where it’s done the authentic way for the best flavor.

Homemade rosemary salt 🌿 the kind of seasoning that goes on everything. Not dessert, but maybe…

Here’s how to make it:

1. Strip the leaves from 4 fresh rosemary sprigs and mince them finely, or use mini food processor.
2. Mix with 2 tablespoons of kosher salt. Use it right away to season roasted vegetables, chicken, or anything that needs a quick flavor boost.

👩🏻‍🍳 Pro tips:
• Use kosher salt for cooking (it sticks and seasons more evenly than table salt).
• Try it on roasted potatoes, focaccia, or grilled meats.
• For a twist, add lemon zest or cracked pepper.
• Want to make it last longer? Dry the rosemary first in a low oven, then mix.
