Fried Pasta by kathy vegasSo what do you do when you have too much leftover pasta? Fried pasta! Fried noodle cakes are popular in a number of cuisines, particularly in Asian cooking.

Roasted Broccoli by John SpottiswoodThis roasted broccoli recipe, adapted from the Barefoot Contessa, is really wonderful. It has a lot of flavor. We served it with a mild pasta, and it was just a wonderful combination. Don't be worried by the lemon juice and zest. They impart a subtle flavor that adds a nice dimension to this dish. |

Roasted Eggplant by Evil FairyThis is a dish you can serve as a side,bubbling hot,over pasta or cold with pita bread. You can either leave skin on or peel. You can also do on the stove,only you will need more oil. Eggplant acts as a sponge and will soak up all the oil. You use much less oil when you roast it. |

Risotto Alla Milanese by JennyRisotto is a typical Italian rice dish cooked in a broth (vegetable, chicken, seafood,etc) to a creamy consistency. It is pretty simple to make and tastes divine!

Calamari Sauce or Side via Pressure Cooker by Laura PazzagliaYou can double this recipe and serve it as a side dish - Italians actually use it as a second course - or make it as written and mix it in with spaghetti, serve it with rice... or surprise your guests by serving it on a little warm rectangle of white polenta - as seafood is served in the Friuli and Veneto regions of Italy. |

Easy Risotto & Gourmet Mushrooms by Amos MillerRisotto scares too many cooks. It's really a simple dish, though not commonly served at the American dinner table - unless you have some (usually Northern) Italian blood in your family. When done with care, risotto can be a sublime accompaniment to all types of dishes. In fact, you can add all types of things to a risotto to… |

Fagiolini in umido (Green beans in tomato sauce) by Frank FarielloWhile Sundays dinners at Angelina's house were once-a-week, belly-busting, meaty affairs, she practically lived on vegetables during the week. This was long before vegetarianism went mainstream and she would not have thought of herself as a 'weekday vegetarian' or anything of that sort. It was just the way that she grew up eating in a… |

Spinach and Ricotta Balls - Gnudis by John SpottiswoodI've been looking for tasty ways to cook spinach and wild greens because they are so healthful. This one is fantastic. These are called Gnudis in Florence because they are "nude", e.g. missing the pasta on the outside. These are sort of like a spinach ravioli without the pasta. If that doesn't sound all that flavorful to you, wait… |
