Key Lime Pie
This key lime pie recipe is made with condensed milk and sour cream. Fabulously easy and a summertime favorite! If you have time, a homemade graham cracker crust is better. Garnish with whipped cream and thin slices of lime if you like.
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.
