Mediterranean Beef Minestrone Soup

Mediterranean Beef Minestrone Soup by Salad Foodie

This feeds a crowd and then some. Hearty and healthy. Start this slow simmering soup early afternoon to have it ready for dinner, so there's time to develop the flavors. Or better yet, cook a day in advance and let the flavors sing next day. I take time to cut the meat and veggies in small pieces as this is a soup, not a stew, and the…

Sometimes my food experiments go right and this one certainly did: an every day meatball kicked up a notch with bacon! Preparation time is reduced by using pre-sliced mushrooms and prepared sauce.

Ricotta Pie

Ricotta Pie by molly11

We took the traditional Italian holiday dessert and brought the health benefits up a notch by adding blueberries. We also think the pie tastes better and looks more inviting. Drain the ricotta cheese if you are buying the cheese prepackaged.
