Simple fresh flavors that marry perfectly together make this eye-pleasing personal pizza juicy and fresh.

No worries, use a pre-made pizza shell and prepared pesto for delicious fresh pizza in a flash.

A simple and succulent pasta dish that is the perfect meal to enjoy while watching the evening news.

The other day while we were watching Gordon Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen, chefs were making flatbread, basically like pizza, just different shape, which really made my craving for pizza come back to life. Then start making this sun-dried tomato, olive and basil pesto flatbread, and it was so good...

Cheesy, moist and very flavorful. The combination of mozzarella, sun-dried tomatoes, and basil pesto make this delicious bread. The bread itself tastes absolutely divine.

Nothing is better than a fruity and cold popsicle in a hot summer day. Basil enhances the strawberry flavor, and gives the popsicle extra zing! Have some popsicles to help you cool down the hot summer!

This is a quick, easy and economical recipe, and it was very tasty too. Feta cheese and black olives gave the dish the Mediterranean flavor. Using spaghetti squash lowered the carb and calorie intakes. Definitely will make it again.

Nothing is like a bowl of warm and delicious chicken noodle soup on a cold winter day.

Love this mediterranean style pasta salad! Marinated artichoke hearts, olives, and feta cheese were a delicious combination. The cherry tomatoes and broccoli add the fresh taste, sometimes we add several strips of roasted bell pepper, or freshly sliced mushrooms, or a few coarsely chopped sun-dried tomatoes.

Delicious, my husband made this pizza for supper and I just couldn't stop eating it. I ate half of the pizza, and drizzled some hot pepper sauce on top, spicy and yummy. We will make it again for sure.

Quick, easy and delicious. An ideal breakfast.

Super tasty and loaded with goodness. This is one of my favorite stew that I'd like to make on a chilly day. It warms me up instantly with tons of great flavor and lots of good-for-me nutrients. I like enjoying it with some good bread that helps to pick up all the yummy sauce.

Use zucchini slices to replace lasagna noodles, which reduces lots of calories and carbohydrate, but it still tastes cheesy and flavorful. A great recipe to cook some seasonal zucchinis into a light yet delicious meal.
