A Year of Meals Made Simple

The 2026 Davila Homemaking Cooking Calendar isn't just another pretty calendar on your wall—it's your personal cooking companion for the entire year. Each month brings you closer to becoming the confident home cook you've always wanted to be, with recipes specifically designed around what's fresh, affordable, and available during that season.

Starting with December 2025, you'll receive 13 complete seasonal recipes—a bonus recipe to take you through the year, and then a fresh recipe for every month of 2026. Each monthly spread features a gorgeous recipe with beautiful photography and clear, detailed instructions that make cooking approachable and enjoyable.

What makes this calendar truly special? It's designed by someone who's been in professional kitchens AND understands the reality of home cooking. Drawing from my experience as a former restaurant owner, I've taken techniques that work in professional settings and adapted them for busy home cooks who want great results without the stress. This isn't Instagram cooking—this is real food for real families.

Enhanced with Video

Pair your calendar with our YouTube Membership (just $0.99/month) to watch detailed video tutorials for each recipe, see techniques in action, and cook alongside Marcela in your own kitchen.

Do I need the YouTube membership to use the calendar?

Not at all! The calendar includes complete written recipes and instructions. The YouTube videos are a bonus that helps you learn techniques and see exactly how things should look at each step.

Are the recipes suitable for dietary restrictions?

Most recipes include suggestions for common substitutions (dairy-free, gluten-free, vegetarian). The YouTube videos will elaborate on recipe variations due to dietary restrictions.
