Today’s episode is a conversation about creating meaningful rhythms around food and family. Whether you are running around with your head cut off because of your busy family schedule, or you have become more isolated due to the culture shifts of a global pandemic, we think this episode will be encouraging and life-giving to you today. Our guest is Dina Deleasa-Gonsar, the creator, writer, and television personality behind the popular food blog DishItGirl.com. Dina is known for sharing her family traditions and modern twists on recipes along with an inside look at her real life as a mom and wife. When in the kitchen, Dina brings her recipes to life with her personal anecdotes and honest, quick wit. Whether she’s whipping up something quick for dinner or pulling out all the stops for a family celebration, she inspires at-home cooks to get creative and try dishes that will become a staple in their house. Dina knows life isn’t always glamorous, so she strives to keep her content relatable, making sure to dish out her real life that goes on behind the scenes of social posts and media platforms. Her family is at the center of everything she does and this can be seen during her time on the E! Network show “Married to Jonas,” which she appeared on alongside her sister. More recently, she was named Best Home Cook by the Hallmark Channel’s Home & Family, and has contributed her recipes to the Today Show, Fab Fit Fun, Living Naturally Magazine, Hidden Hills, Cook’s Cook, Eat Up New York, and Jersey Bites, among others. Whether it’s a 4-course meal or simply breakfast for dinner, with DishItGirl, Dina hopes to keep it real, with real-good food along the way. She currently lives in New Jersey with her husband, Brian, and daughter, Siena. Read More
