How chefs really cook.
Sure, recipes are great when you have all the time (and patience) in the world. But, let’s be honest—there are few times during the week when that’s a reality for most of us. And yes, even professional chefs like our founder Marco Canora tend to go off-script for their weeknight meals.
Want to know a secret? A chef’s favorite type of recipe…is a no-recipe recipe. In our case this means using basic techniques to marry fresh, in-season veggies with flavorful, nutrient-dense Brodo.
And that’s it. That’s the recipe.

Broth is a great way to cook your veggies. It adds a meaty depth of flavor, plus it coats your ingredients in gut healthy, protein heavy goodness.
Try this ultra-versatile “no-recipe recipe” for yourself.
The No-Recipe Recipe
INGREDIENTS
- A couple of cups of your favorite veggies and fresh herbs (any farmers’ market grabs and leftovers work perfectly)
- 2-3 cloves of garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cups Brodo (any flavor)
- Salt & pepper to taste
- Toppings such as Parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, olive oil, soft boiled eggs, and slices of citrus
INSTRUCTIONS

- Add your Brodo, plus some salt and pepper—then cover the pot and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes until the veggies are tender.
