Florentine Recipes

Great Low Carb dish

a lighter take on the original

Quick and easy soup -- perfect for lunch!

Great pasta dish that tastes much richer than it is! Sodium is a little high, but you could probably find lower sodium soup. Lots of vitamins!

This is an EASY and quick way to impress the family at dinner..Works with shrimp too or do BOTH shrimp & scallops...YUM!

This recipe comes from the Minute Rice website. It's quick and easy to make, even after you get home from work at night. It also tastes good and is a good way to get the kids to eat their veggies.

You would never guess this recipe is lightened just by tasting. Perfect for company or a special occasion, your guests will be impressed and beg for the recipe. Use your favorite seafood for the haddock, can be shrinp, scallops or almost anything.

Serve with roasted asparagus and a lovely green salad dressed with a light vinaigrette.

This is a neat alternative to poached florentine or a florentine omelet.

Savory and easy.

One of my hubby's favs, my home made hot pockets. If you notice the ones in the freezer section, where are the veggies? I created one with ham, swiss, spinach and onions. Over the last year or so, I have experimented with other fillings. My family loves them.

This recipe is off the back of a can of Bush's cannellini beans. Yum!

Added Spinach & Whole Wheat Pasta to another member's recipe and it turned out great! Such a tasty sauce with a bit of a Cajun kick.

Recipe adapted from "Extra Virgin" (Cooking Channel) recipe; uses half the sugar and half the oil

This dreamy tomato soup comes together really quickly. We’ve added some crumbled whole wheat bread to thicken it and spinach to make it even healthier. Serve it as a first course soup or make it a soup and sandwich meal! We especially like it serve with our A Delectable Gourmet Grilled Roast Beef and Cheese Sandwich. This soup is so hearty, you’ll probably only need a cup and a half of sandwich to feel completely satisfied!

One of my FAVORITE dishes is Eggs Benedict Florentine! I just stumbled upon a recipe with quinoa, spinach and a fried egg. So I quickly ran to the kitchen, being that I had all that I needed on hand, and went to work.

If you don't like eggs..you will love tofu

Nice light flavor, fresh vegetables and pasta. Delicious any time of year!

Made this stuffing to put over top pork chops that I then baked in the oven.
