Like millions of other families, Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have Christmas traditions that they enjoy partaking in each year over the holidays. During a recent interview, Stefani opened up about the one Christmas tradition that she and Shelton stumbled upon a few years ago that has now become an annual event for them!
Shelton And Stefani’s Christmas Tradition
“We started off by always trying to find something that wasn’t a tradition — like, let’s try something different, try something new,” Stefani told Entertainment Tonight. “We stumbled across this dish called the Timpano Dome… it’s basically like a lasagna but it’s in this dome formed either with bread or a pasta. We started doing that a few years ago and now that’s the thing, yeah.”
While Timpano Dome is known as an old school Italian dish, Stefani was quick to clarify that her and Shelton’s interpretation of it may not be so traditional.
“Probably some Italians might get mad about this, because typically it would be a pasta wrapped around it, but we started doing a pizza dough because it tastes yummy,” she noted. “Maybe I’ll make the dough myself this year — which would be a lot on Christmas day… But I might actually do it the day before.”
Stefani has already pledged to share the dish on Instagram once they’re done making it. Check out Shelton and Stefani’s 2022 version of the dish in the video below!

Shelton And Stefani’s History
Shelton and Stefani met back in 2014 when they were both coaches on “The Voice,” and they married in July of 2021. Since then, they’ve split their time between Los Angeles and Tishomingo, Oklahoma, where they own a ranch.
Last month, Shelton opened up about what life is like on his ranch in Oklahoma with Stefani, who was a lifelong country girl before her marriage.
“I’m not going to say that she’s become this country girl, but I just think we’re starting to see a different side of Gwen,” Shelton told E! News.
‘God Is All Right Here’
Stefani gushed over her new life in Oklahoma in a separate interview back in October.
“Going to Oklahoma [and] just being introduced to a whole world I didn’t know about — and I’m not really a dirt person or like a bug person or a hot person — but you sort of get over it all,” Stefani told People Magazine.
“It’s so beautiful [in Oklahoma], and you kind of feel like you’re going into this vortex,” she added. “I guess it’s just nature and God is all right there.”
In the end, Stefani could not be happier enjoying the country life with Shelton.
“I didn’t see any of this coming with Blake. This was just a big old ‘What?’ It was an amazing gift to experience love like that for the first time,” she said. “He’s changed my life … when I [started dating] Blake, that’s when I felt home, like, ‘Oh, this is where I’m supposed to be, with this guy.”
