Giada De Laurentiis and her daughter, Jade, love nothing more than a day at home making pizza and pasta. People think making pizza dough from scratch is intimidating and laborious when, in fact, it's easy and a total blast. Giada and Jade work together on a Chicago-style Deep Dish Cheese Pizza and pair it with summery Spaghetti with Lemon Zucchini and, for dessert, Lemon and Strawberry Sundaes.

Giada De Laurentiis, her daughter Jade and Giada's boyfriend Shane head to Palm Springs, Calif., for a weekend of fun in the sun. It's also the perfect opportunity to enjoy a poolside, al fresco feast. Giada's summertime menu includes Picnic Pasta, make-your-own Flank Steak Hoagies and Almond Butter Brownies.
