Ziti or Penne pasta can be used.

These are a wonderful, classic Italian crunchy cookie, that is great for anyone who is gluten- or wheat-free! As these sit, they get crunchy throughout. Delicious with any fruit dessert, paired with an ice cream sundae, or on their own with a strong espresso!

A leaner, healthier take on a traditional Italian dish.

This is a delicious alternative to lasagna, and a more "user-friendly" version of spaghetti with sauce. Baking the sauce into the pasta makes it slightly less messy for kids, and there's no long skinny noodles to gag on if they aren't cut properly. The mozzarella cheese adds calcium, and using multigrain pasta with omega 3's makes this dish oh-so-healthy!
Oh, and for all you vegetarians: check out the protein in a single cup of this delicious pasta dish!
Was taught how to make this recipe one day and is now a family favorite. Makes a lot and is very flavorful.
This wonderful dish comnbines a few of my favorites! It will fill up even the most hungry of men/ women.
This is a lasagna made with Eggplant, instead of traditional pasta noodles. This is really a great tasting dish. This has been confirmed by the kids who will eat it, without knowing they are eating eggplant. I was once told that if the kids eat it, it must be pretty good. I hope you try it.
My fiance and I love this biscotti...the cranberries add great sweetness and the pistachios some good crunch.
Fennel and tomato pair nicely for an Italian-style tomato soup. Save fennel fronds to use as a garnish.
If you like Greek Spinach Pie, this is a wonderful healthier substitution that even kids like too - I was surprised/amazed that my child liked this recipe:)
