Today’s the day! I just opened up the cart for the Italian Cooking Retreat tickets (happening September 12 - 21, 2025).
PURCHASE YOUR TICKET: homebodyeats.thrivecart.com/italian-cooking-retrea…
As I mentioned yesterday, I really want to share the amazing experience I had cooking, eating, and exploring my way through Southern Italy.
Because of this, I’ve heavily discounted the Italian Cooking Retreat participant pricing (just $5,998/person) for a limited time as a way to make this dream vacation a reality for as many people as possible!
If you have any questions about the retreat, you can check out the homepage (homebodyeats.com/italian-cooking-retreat/) or leave a comment below. I'll respond ASAP! I’m so excited to finally be sharing this trip of a lifetime with you!
PS- You don’t need to panic. I don’t expect to sell out immediately. However, if you want one of the 20 total spots for the trip, then please don’t delay. They’re going to go fast!

Travel can transform you in unexpected ways. From introducing you to new cultures/ways of life to broadening your perspective, inspiring fresh ideas, and making lifelong memories/friendships.
Traveling to Italy is, without a doubt, a great way to unwind, rejuvenate, and re-ignite your passion.
After feeling all of these things during my time in culinary school in Southern Italy, I knew I had to share this magical experience with others.
My Italian Cooking Retreat will do just that:
- You'll experience an authentic, local side of Italian life.
- Build meaningful relationships with people who enjoy food and travel as much as you do.
- See breathtaking views.
- Taste the most amazing food of your life.
- Gain confidence in the kitchen.
And, because we're all foodies, I also have to share the amazing food we'll eat and cook on the retreat:
- You're going to die when you experience the taste of an Italian truffle (and no, truffle oil isn't the same😜).
- Unique dishes with super fresh seafood. The octopus carpaccio is life-changing!
- Amazing and beautifully plated desserts (like this lemon mousse).
- Gelato that you'll dream about once you return home. I'm already dying to eat the pistachio gelato once I return!
Tickets for this once-in-a-lifetime trip go on sale in just 2 days! Here's how it will work:
- Tickets will become available on Monday, September 23 at 9:00 am PT/ 10:00 am MT / 11:00 am CT / 12:00 pm ET. A link to purchase will be provided at the top of this page. I'll also send an email with the link to purchase.

Just a quick reminder that I'll be going live TOMORROW, Sunday, July 28 at 6:00 pm (CST). We'll be cooking an Italian themed dinner together so I can share all of my tips and tricks from culinary school.
I'd love to have you join in and watch, or cook alongside me!
Here's what we'll be cooking:
Aperol Spritz: If you're not a fan of Aperol, you can substitute it for a bottle of Campari or Limoncello. We'll also go over how to make those variations of a spritz! Grab the recipe: homebodyeats.com/italian-aperol-spritz/
Aglio e Olio: This is the main course for the night. It's a garlic pasta that I know you're going to love. Grab the recipe: homebodyeats.com/italian-aglio-e-olio/
Tiramisu: And finally, we're ending the night with some classic tiramisu. Grab the recipe: homebodyeats.com/individual-tiramisu-cups/
Be sure to grab all the necessary groceries if you want to cook alongside me :) See you soon!

We're continuing the summer of Italian gelato. This boozy gelato recipe is layered with flavors of chocolate and red wine. It's a rich and decadent dessert that's perfect for an after-dinner treat.

If you've been following along with my recent gelato videos, here's a new recipe for you: Stracciatella
While I love pretty much every flavor of gelato, stracciatella has to be one of my favorites. Not only do you get a super creamy gelato, but there is chocolate spread perfectly throughout every bite.
Recipe here:

Hey there, welcome to Homebody Eats! My name is Jesssica. This YouTube channel was created as a way to teach you how to master skills, culinary concepts, and high-quality dishes in your home kitchen.
On this channel, you'll find recipes that will actually teach you how to cook. With each recipe you cook, you'll learn something new like 'what is a béchamel sauce' or 'best techniques for cooking pizza in a home oven.'
You'll learn to cook by understanding the history of a dish, why culinary professionals use certain techniques in the kitchen, and how the ingredients you select affect the final dish.
All of the recipes featured on this channel can be found on my recipe website at homebodyeats.com
