This delicious and refreshing pasta salad is easy to put together, and it's best served after being chilled, perfect on a hot summer day!

Completely different recipe than Jamaican or Spanish ones. I used few known methods to make beans easier to digest. They all work very well not to make music.

Cheesy eggplant parmigiana layers crisp breaded fried eggplant with a garlicky tomato-basil sauce and plenty of Parmesan and mozzarella, baked bubbling and golden. The classic Italian vegetarian comfort dish.

Sauté asparagus, mushrooms, and bell peppers until tender, pour in herbed eggs with goat cheese, then broil until golden for a veggie-packed frittata perfect for any meal.

Skip store-bought packets and make your own Italian dressing mix that will keep in the pantry for up to a year.

My family of 3 boys and my husband refuse to eat anything "healthy"...well I made this tvp chili, but did not tell them what was in it. Well between the 4 of them they finished the pot. So excellent!! Easily used to "fool" non vegetarians!

Cheese stuffed chicken breasts pounded thin and rolled around a savory filling of roasted red pepper, mozzarella, basil, and stuffing mix, then baked until golden and bubbling. An Italian-style weeknight main.

Homemade herbed breadsticks with basil, oregano, and garlic kneaded into a whole-wheat yeast dough, then rolled in butter and Parmesan for crisp golden edges. Perfect for dunking in marinara.

"This delicious main dish is really open to your own taste in fresh vegetables. Feel free to switch your favorites for your not-so-favorite ones. Some have even suggested adding mushrooms, garlic, diced cooked chicken and extra sauce."

Bold, briny spaghetti alla puttanesca with San Marzano tomatoes, capers, black olives, and anchovies tossed in garlicky olive oil. This quick Italian pasta dish hits the table in 40 minutes with layers of salty, savory depth in every forkful.

Love frittata for breakfast, lunch or sometimes dinner. It's so versatile to make, and it never lets me down :) The combination in this frittata is delicious, you can substitute other vegetables you have on hand, and it will be still very tasty.

Pork ragu lasagna layered with a slow-cooked tomato and herb sauce, plenty of grated cheese, and a milk-brushed top that bakes golden. A hearty homemade lasagna built on ground pork instead of beef.

Sausage and lentil soup that's even better the next day. Browned sausage, vegetables, and herbs simmered into a hearty broth, with lentils added near the end so they stay tender, not mushy.

I was reading New York Times the other day, and a Greek Salad English Muffin recipe with picture captured my attention. Then I made this Greek salad-one of my favorites, instead of English muffins, I used homemade whole wheat burger bun. So here my sandwich is stuffed with Greek Salad, sounds a good idea, and it tastes amazingly delicious!

Caramelized grilled figs and smoky prosciutto are a delicious pair, and you can find both of them in this salad, mixed with some peppery arugula, gouda cheese and tossed with a basil-roasted bell pepper vinaigrette.

This quick, light yet succulent herbed chicken piccata is an ideal week-night meal. Serve it with steamed rice or bread.
