Roasted Roma Tomatoes
This recipe for roasted Roma tomatoes features simple, fresh ingredients that are amazing together. Roast the tomatoes in the oven or on your grill. You want them cooked but still firm — and definitely not mushy.
Cheesy Polenta
This cheese polenta is a versatile side dish that works great with pork, chicken, beef, or fish. The trick is to slowly add the cornmeal and whisk constantly to avoid lumps.
Greens and Beans
We serve this along with steak and a baked potato. You can drizzle some extra-virgin olive oil on top before serving. Serve with crusty Italian bread. Navy beans work in this, also.
Baked Polenta with Fresh Tomatoes and Parmesan
This baked polenta with fresh tomatoes and Parmesan recipe is a perfect way to highlight and use fresh summer tomatoes. It makes a great side dish for grilled chicken or pork chops.
Mushroom Orzo
After eating at an 'Italian' chain restaurant and loving this side dish, I went home and tried to recreate it. This is the recipe I finally came up with.
Creamy Garlic and Onion Spaghetti
This is one of my family's favorite recipes, handed down in my mother's Italian family for several generations. I serve it to my small children, and they love the long noodles and savory sauce!
Simmered Italian Rice
This simmered Italian rice recipe turns plain rice into a deliciously different side when it's cooked in broth and accented with spinach and Parmesan cheese.
Crispy Zucchini or Pumpkin Blossoms
My Italian grandmother makes these every year when the zucchini in her garden start to blossom. She is Sicilian and calls them "cripelli." It's sort of like a fritter and so yummy. As an alternative, you could also chop up the blossoms and mix them up in the batter and drop by teaspoons into the hot oil.
Baby Kale Sauté
What a tasty way to eat your greens! Baby kale is sautéed with caramelized onions, toasted pine nuts, and golden raisins for a quick, healthy side dish. I often eat this over rice for a main meal. Baby spinach is an easy substitute.
Southern Italian Thanksgiving Stuffing
This is the best Thanksgiving stuffing I have ever had. With a mix of Southern-style cooking and Italian flavors it brings all great tastes together. I got this recipe from my mom last year after everyone gave it amazing reviews!
Nipples of Venus (Capezzoli di Venere)
I first learned of these confections through the famous scene of the same name in the movie Amadeus. Fast forward 30-plus years later, and inspired by a viewer's request, I finally learned that these were in fact real, and very delicious, thanks in part to the star of the show, chestnuts. Serve these as a sexy snack during a Valentine's viewing of the corresponding film.
Italian Butterball Cookies
These holiday Italian butterball cookies are perfect for people of any age. They are good as a quick snack or dessert. Don't worry, they are not balls of butter. They are smooth, chewy, and delicious cookies. This is an old family recipe that is loved by all. Hopefully, you like them too!
