Tuscan Ribollita Soup
This soup will transport you to the easy going atmosphere of Tuscany with its simple, healthy ingredients. Cozy up with a movie (I’d suggest Summer in Genoa) and enjoy the flavors of celery, carrots, kale, and tomatoes in a cheesy broth.

Coq au Vin
This brothy, chicken dish is wine cooking at its finest. This simple, yet elegant French dish features tender fall off the bone chicken and garlic roasted mushrooms.
Cuban Picadillo
Flavorful stew over white rice is a traditional dish in Cuba. While there are many variations of this recipe — depending on what part of the country you’re in — the sentiment remains the same. This classic meal is a filling crowd pleaser.
Here’s my favorite way to make Cuban Picadillo.
Classic Fish and Chips
England gets a bad wrap on food, but you can’t deny that the creation of fish and chips is anything less than brilliant. Follow along with Gordon Ramsay, with this ten minute recipe.
Scones and Clotted Cream
I’ve never been one to enjoy tea and pastries, but after a few days in London, the tradition is now something I have added to my daily routine. Enjoy this scones recipe with raspberry jam, clotted cream, and a hot black tea. You can buy clotted cream or make your own using these instructions.

Originating in Rome, this pasta dish is quick and delicious. Bacon, peas, and a cheesy egg sauces over spaghetti are the base of this recipe. Add mushrooms and hot pepper for added flavor.
These were a few of my favorite recipes, but think about the places you’ve been – or would like to go – and create your own (and feel free to share what you’re making in the comments!)
