Skinny Seven Layer Dip
The traditional 7 layer dip can be rather fattening, so here is a fresher, lighter alternative. It requires a tad more work, but I assure you it is worth it! I always have people asking for this recipe.
Zucchini e Pomodori Gratinati (Zucchini and Tomato Gratin)
A quick and easy vegetarian zucchini-tomato-mozzarella bake for two, a starter for four, or even a side. A rustic Italian favorite, taught me by my Roman friends. If serving as a main, then crusty bread, torn off the loaf by hand, and a green salad with a lemon and/or lime vinaigrette dressing cannot be beat.
