Julie Moran has traveled the world on assignment, but by far one of her favorite places in the world is Italy. “My husband Rob and I have not taken the girls yet, but we have introduced them to Tuscan Lemon Chicken,” says Julie. “They beg me to cook it and we can’t wait to take Maiya and Makayla there next year to try it in person!!!”
