Italian lunch/5 recipes

Sweet potato, lentil and green beans are cooked IN a curry, garlic and ginger flavoured vegetable broth in foil packets, so flavourful. Enjoy these small and tasty packets.

A classic deli sandwich. Could also serve this cold, but the melted cheeses make it.

A great party food favorite. Tastes just like normal sausage rolls - makes you wonder just how much actual meat they have in them :P. Even my 17 year old carnivor of a brother loves these.

Prepare your recipe for kefta meatballs. Let them simmer for at least an hour in this spicy tomato-based sauce.

This version of the garlicky roasted eggplant dip does not have tahini in it as with a traditional version. While I really like an "authentic" baba ghanoush, I also enjoy the commercial Sabra brand, which uses mayo and some spices. It is slightly sweet and has a little kick. This is my rendition.

That was the lunch we made yesterday, and we made a few changes (see the linked recipe below). We used cheddar instead of velveeta cheese, fresh broccoli, and omitted the butter. An easy-one-dish meal and quite tasty.

A sophisticated French American twist on Quesadillas - Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato with some creamy goat cheese... num num.

Try this original pasta dish that is ideal for a dinner for two. Great served with freshly toasted garlic bread.

This is a very fresh taste tomato salsa and also quick and easy, chopped some fresh tomatoes, sweet red bell pepper, tossed with freshly chopped cilantro and parsley leaves, serve with your favorite chips.

I have tried many different Lasagna recipes over the years. This is the culmination of all that trial and error, a wonderful recipe that needs to be shared with the world. The ingredients and actual recipe are at the end of this article. I know you won’t be disappointed with my Best Lasagna Recipe!

This quick and easy dish tastes refreshingly delicious, and it's also packed with nutrients. Use whole wheat pasta to add extra goodness, or use gluten-free pasta if you are on a gluten-free diet.

Tasty vegetable and lentil base topped with mashed potato. Lovely healthy comfort food for a winter night :D Note: though the list of ingredients can at first be daunting, dont be put off. Most are just seasoning that can be added at your own pace.

We loved it and used it in the Turkey Lasagna recipe.

Make these pretty snow flake cookies look more appealing and attractive by decorating them with Christmas icing. They may look too pretty to put into mouth :)

Using a box cake mix as a base is a time saver; substituting cream cheese for mascarpone is a money saver. Tastes like the real thing, is beautiful and surprisingly light.

Great as a salad or sandwich.
