Pasta with Cauliflower, Prosciutto, and Parmesan

Pasta with Cauliflower, Prosciutto, and Parmesan by Nancy Miyasaki

Our whole family enjoyed this flavorful pasta that I cooked tonight. Despite the chicken broth, this is a relatively dry pasta, but it is very flavorful. We added the crushed red peppers at the end because some of our kids can't take the heat, but I thought they added an important dimension. If your rushed for time, you can skip…

Vegetable Lasagna

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…

Italian Steak Salad

Italian Steak Salad by John Spottiswood

We adapted this from a Giada De Laurentis recipe. It's simple, but incredibly delicious. Our kids powered through more than we imagined possible. No leftovers at all! The biggest change was serving the steak hot of the grill instead of chilled. That makes a huge positive difference I think...as the warm steak contrasts wonderfully…

Ricotta and Greens or Spinach Pasta

Ricotta and Greens or Spinach Pasta by John Spottiswood

This is another excellent dish that takes advantage of delicious and healthy greens. This is a Sicilian dish that I absolutely love. Our kids all went back for seconds. It's also quite beautiful...the lousy picture I took does not do it justice. A healthy and yummy treat! This is also adapted from Red White and Greens by Faith…

PURPLE AND WHITE EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA--BAKED--NOT FRIED

PURPLE AND WHITE EGGPLANT PARMIGIANA--BAKED--NOT FRIED by Cecelia Heer

I think that the first time I ever made eggplant parmigiana was in 1979. Back then, it was the "typical pizza parlor" dish with eggplant fried in vegetable oil and then covered with that Polly-O mozzarella cheese "stuff" that was wrapped in plastic and tasted as such, dusted with Parmigiano "cheese" that had the consistency of baby…

Eggplant Parmigiana

Eggplant Parmigiana by Carolinaheartstrings

Eggplants that are younger (more glossy) tend to have less seeds and are less bitter. At one time I had believed “gender” played a role in the presence of seeds but research I read recently explained that more seeds are an indication of age, NOT the eggplant being a “female”. Eggplants are self-pollinators and have both male and…

Baked Penne with Vegetables

Baked Penne with Vegetables by Salad Foodie

Reminiscent of lasagna but loaded with veggies, this dish will take center stage at group gatherings. It makes good use of summer's zucchini surplus, so file the recipe away in your stash of squash faves. Don't let the cauliflower put you off - it is so well camouflaged that while many noticed the zucchini, no one detected cauliflower…
