Zucchini Smeriato ( Scalloped Zucchini) by J. Gino Genovesi

There are many zucchini recipes, but this is one that I kinda made up. It is nourishing, a good Lenten dish and quick and easy to make. Prepare items a head of time. I know your family will like this dish.

Vegetable Lasagna by Salad Foodie

Lasagna laced with garden vegetables and whole wheat noodles makes a healthier pasta alternative to traditional lasagna. Don’t let the list of ingredients and/or chopping daunt you.(I just consider it my afternoon therapy session.) The veggies are cut in small pieces to layer better between noodles. Sub any combo of veggies preferred…

Chicken Cacciatore by Salad Foodie

Garden Marinara Sauce with Spaghetti by Salad Foodie

This marinara is chock full of veggies, and served atop whole grain spaghetti noodles, makes a guilt-free pasta entrée. Use the last of summer’s garden tomatoes, or use canned if time is short. It fills your whole home with a wonderful Italian aroma as it cooks!

Stuffed Crepes by Kyra Martin

I loved this! It was basically a fun new twist on lasagna. The tomato sauce was really simple, but delicious. It'd be great to use on loads of other things. I got this from The Essential Mediterranean Cookbook.

Pork Sausage with Braised Fennel by Nate Appleman

This is one of our most popular dishes at SPQR. You can cook the sausage any way you like but I'd recommend frying it light extra virgin olive oil - should get to a nice dark brown color outside. Serve this with my Fried Brusseles Sprouts and pasta. Enjoy!
