WW II Veteran and Prisoner of War Shares His Recipe
WW II Veteran and prisoner of war, Bruno Ceccatti, is 95 years young. While stationed in Germany, Bruno was captured and spent over three months in captivity. Although he does not speak much of his war experiences, he is from the “Greatest Generation” where service to country and commitment to freedom were a resounding theme.
In his retirement, Bruno has had many interests; however, his passion for cooking has remained constant. Preparing and sharing meals with family, friends, and caregivers has deepened his relationships, and he has always served them with love.
One of Bruno’s favorite and most popular recipes is his Stuffed Banana Peppers, and he is delighted to pass it along to others.
We extend our appreciation for his service to our country and for sharing his recipe for all to enjoy! Bon appetite.
