Italian lunch/28 recipes

Bright and spicy, even better it's a great way to use up leftover chicken.

This recipe is over 100 years old. I add a twist to the recipe (and a little sweetness) by adding some golden raisins, like my favorite restaurant in Provincetown, Mass., does.

These are lots of yummy ingredients in these biscotti, you can find them all in every single bite. Very chocolaty, toasted almonds add the nuttiness, and the orange zest goes deliciously well with chocolate. Enjoy these biscotti with a cup of coffee at any time.

Quite easy to put together, and the dish tasted delicious. Will definitely make it again!

A delicious dish. Made it for lunch yesterday, and we were surprised by how creamy and flavourful it came out.

Make your own pasta at home. Fresh pasta isn't hard to make it just takes a little bit of time and effort and the results are well worth it. If you don't have a pasta machine you can roll it out, fold into layers and cut with a knife to make your own custom noodles.

By following the simple steps, you will be able to make a great companion for tortilla chips, tacos and sandwiches!

Delicious homemade tomato soup. Not only will your kids love it, you’ll love that it doesn’t have the added sodium of many canned varieties of tomato soup. Add a fistful of crusty Italian bread to dip and watch it disappear!

A wonderful recipe that will make your breakfast or lunch a lot more enjoyable!

Loaded with veggies and with a hint of sweetness, this chili recipe has been my family's favorite for many, many years.

Grilled sausage, homemade tomato jam and sauerkraut make this sandwich a winner. Enjoy the smoky, sweet and sour flavors all in one bite, and it's a great change from hot dog!

A simple combination of flour, seasonings, and butter are all the ingredients you need.

A tasty cheesecake with famous Italian Toschi amarena cherries. The black amarena is a sweet fruit with a bitterish aftertaste. Fresh and summery, it is carefully stoned and sweetened and can be eaten all year round.

Your kids don't eat enough veggies. Or they just hate brocoli. Or maybe they love broccoli either way you will want to make this salad. Everyone will love it. Great for BBQ, picnics, potlucks and just everyday side dish or lunch.

An Italian style pasta salad with well seasoned pasta and perfectly cooked broccoli.

Cheesy polenta topped with eggs and a bit of Italian or Turkey sausage, perfect for a Sunday brunch. Any cheese could be used but my favorite is Fontina or an old flavor filled cheddar. Similar to sausage, eggs and potato but much healthier with perfect matching of flavors. Very easy to halve the recipe along with pictures.
