Family Over Everything
christina cooks: back to the cutting board

There's the family you're born into and the family you choose. It's a small group of people upon whom you depend and love you without condition. They created you and make you who you are in the world today. They're your home. For me, it's family over everything, so let's gather around the table and celebrate those we love. Recipes: Bucatini with Lentil Ragu; Borlotti Bean Soup with Escarole; and Tomatoes; Pasta and Potatoes.

Duration: 26 minutes and 46 seconds

Episode Number: 408

About Christina Cooks: Back to the Cutting Board:

In CHRISTINA COOKS: BACK TO THE CUTTING BOARD, Christina Pirello shares healthy, fresh Italian and Mediterranean recipes as well as her brassy, insightful approach to liver, kidney and heart health and diabetes prevention.

Diagnosed with terminal cancer in 1983, Christina turned to a macrobiotic diet of whole grains and vegetables to aid in her recovery, launching the 20-plus year run of her Emmy Award-winning series Christina Cooks.
