Buddy's cooking up Pasta e Lenticchie, Bananas Foster and all of brother-in-law Mauros favorites. Together, they'll share stories from the bakery, Mauro's Italian heritage, and the meals theyve shared together over the years.

Buddy and his sister Lisa love pasta! Together, they cook and reminisce about the homemade pasta their grandmothers used to make. On the menu are some of their favorites, homemade Potato Gnocchi with Mushroom Sauce, Rigatoni alla Vodka, and Baked Ziti.

Auntie Anna cooks many of Buddy's best-loved dishes, but she's never shared her recipes with the Valastro family. She reveals her secrets, as she lets Buddy in on her homemade Manicotti and her Chicken with Vinegar Peppers recipes.
