No Sugar Italian Sweet Ricotta Pie
Creamy sweet ricotta pie always has a place in an Italian Easter Sunday feast. This dish is super delicious at breakfast, lunch or for dessert for any time of year! No crust, no sugar, very few carbs and pineapple vanilla is just the best flavor profile!
Parmesan Chicken Salad with Creamy Italian Dressing
I love salads but loathe bottled dressing. I think people use them because they do not realize just how easy it is to make your own Creamy Italian dressing to keep in the fridge.
Steak Pizzaiola
Serve this tender, fall-off-the-bone meat with sauteed Swiss chard or zucchini. It is very easy but the flavors are really deep and flavorful. Steak in the style of the pizzamaker.
Big Ole Tomato Salad
This will help you to STOP overthinking food. At your next glorious bbq, all you need are chicken thighs, some fresh corn, and this salad. Boom.
'Zoodles' Zucchini Noodles Alfredo, big yum!
Zucchini noodles are hot right now... and really delicious!
Easy No Noodle Lasagna, aka Ricotta Bake
This low carb, super high protein lasagna is perfect when you need a comforting meal to satisfy your craving for Italian food.
Pan Seared Lamb Chop Dinner for 2
I cannot think of a nicer Easter Dinner for two or four. This is a 30 minute meal that is an excellent choice for a holiday or special occasion meal. This plate of food could be served in a very fancy pants restaurant! The cauliflower is out of this world.
Eggplant Ricotta Bake
This version eliminates the 'frying' step, instead the eggplant is roasted, which concentrates the flavor. While not traditional, I love the added ricotta 'lasagna' layer that serves as the protein. I like the eggplant to shine, so I do not add too many herbs or spices. A wonderful dish!
Sweet Pepper and Cheese Frittata
Filling and delicious and bariatric friendly. This Frittata can be served hot, room temp or cold.
Zucchini Pancakes with Ranch Dressing
I am Italian and love love love zucchini! You are going to love it too when you taste this recipe.
Ricotta Berry Pie
This is a lightly sweet dessert that is also a wonderful breakfast or snack as it is truly a good choice food. It is also pretty enough to serve for a holiday meal when you are watching your calories. Everyone will love it
Tomato Basil Soup
When you try this super easy and delicious soup, you'll never be happy with canned tomato soup again! Give this one a try - it's a keeper!
