Healthy recipes were inspired by twins' love and their courage to conquer breast cancer! Twins, Judy and Joy's dream started in 2009 when they entered a Food Network contest. The cookin' twins were chosen to do a holiday segment for Bobby Flay for a family favorite Roast Goose. They didn't win, but decided there may be something to their culinary dreams. The two come from a large Italian-American family, where there is always a house full of women cooking. Both sides of grandparents owned Italian grocery stores, so they grew up with the best ingredients. Each sister has a different approach to recipes. They cook the same dish--but just two different ways. Judy, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012, takes her family recipes and makes them with a healthy twist. If you're looking for your traditional recipe, Joy has you covered in that area. Either way, their food is cooked with lots of love!
