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 Ricotta Cookies
This Italian ricotta cookies recipe makes a large batch of deliciously light & fluffy cookies with a hint of lemon in the frosting. The ricotta cheese gives them a heavenly texture.
Panna Cotta With Fresh Strawberry Sauce
This panna cotta with fresh strawberry sauce recipe is my version of the Italian dessert favorite. "Panna cotta" literally means "cooked cream." I made it for my husband to take to a work function, and they loved it! They send him home with a request for it every year now! I created a simple strawberry sauce to accompany it. It really makes the dish!
Pumpkin Cannoli
I needed to bring a pumpkin dessert for a themed baby shower and I came up with this pumpkin cannoli recipe — it was a huge hit.
