Emmy Award-winning chef Giada De Laurentiis is bringing a taste of Italy to home kitchens across the United States through a new partnership with meal kit delivery service Home Chef. The collaboration, announced February 23, 2026, will feature eight rotating Italian-inspired recipes available on the Home Chef menu through April 24.
Home Chef subscribers will have access to two new co-branded recipes each week, designed to offer “elevated, everyday meals” according to the company. De Laurentiis stated, “I’ve always believed that cooking doesn’t have to be complicated to taste good,” and emphasized the partnership’s aim to deliver Italian flavors in a simple, accessible format.
The menu includes Cacciatore-Style Chicken Milanese, Seared Salmon Orzo, Effortless Parmesan Shrimp Risotto, Giada’s Three-Cheese Baked Sausage Pasta, One-Pan Italian Chicken Florentine, Giada’s Veggie-Packed Beef Bolognese, Weekend-in-Positano Shrimp Pasta, and Giada’s Creamy Chicken Scaloppine.
Home Chef offers a variety of plans to suit different needs, including the Home Chef Plan (minimum $50.95 per week) and the Family Plan (minimum $90.91 per week). Meal kits start at $7.99 per serving, and customers can customize their selections each week. The service also provides Express Meal Kits, Oven-Ready meals, and Fast & Fresh microwaveable options.
To coincide with the launch, Home Chef is offering new subscribers 50% off their first box. Through April 17, customers can use the code NBCSELECT to receive meals at $4.99 per serving with free shipping, and a free Mini Giadzy Olive Oil while supplies last. This offer excludes Tempo and Family meal plans.
Home Chef also sells heat-and-eat kits in Kroger-owned grocery stores, expanding access to its meal solutions beyond direct subscription services.
