Home Chef Partners with Emmy-Winning Chef Giada on LTO Menu

LTO collaboration with Chef Giada
Home Chef

Available exclusively on the Home Chef menu, the Giada De Laurentiis collection is designed to take home cooks on a tour of Italy, while fitting seamlessly into everyday schedules.

February 25, 2026

Home Chef, the leading meal solutions company available online and in stores nationwide, has partnered with Emmy award winning chef, cookbook author and restaurateur, Giada De Laurentiis to create a limited-time collection of Italian-inspired meals. 

Available exclusively on the Home Chef menu, the Giada De Laurentiis collection is designed to take home cooks on a tour of Italy, while fitting seamlessly into everyday schedules.

"I've always believed that cooking doesn't have to be complicated to taste good," said De Laurentiis. "I love showing people how simple it can be to cook quality meals, and so much of my inspiration comes from Italy, where classic flavors and straightforward techniques make unforgettable dishes. Partnering with Home Chef is such a natural fit because it gives me the chance to bring that Italian influence into elevated, everyday dishes that are simple to make at home."

De Laurentiis is an Emmy award-winning television personality, NBC "Today Show" contributor, and the author of 11 New York Times bestselling cookbooks, including her latest cookbook, Super-Italian.

Her growing restaurant empire includes GIADA and Pronto by Giada in Las Vegas, Luna and Pronto by Giada in Scottsdale, as well as new concepts Sorellina, which opened in the Chicagoland area in 2025 and Sorella. 

The eight-week collaboration features eight rotating recipes, which each repeat once, giving home cooks the chance to revisit their favorite flavors throughout the program. Each recipe includes fresh, pre-portioned ingredients to reduce prep time and make weeknight cooking more approachable.

"At Home Chef, we have a passion for making food as delicious and accessible as possible." said Raquel Brown, director of brand marketing at Home Chef, "Giada shares that same philosophy, and together we're making it easier than ever for people to create flavorful, Italian-style dishes at home with ease."
