Malfatti {Spinach & Ricotta Dumplings}
Continuing on my classic Italian recipe exploration I discovered Malfatti, a true Italian comfort food. These spinach and ricotta ‘dumplings’ are soft and tender and practically melt in your mouth.

Herby Polenta {with Smoked Gouda}
I’m not sure whether to categorize Herby Polenta as a side dish or a main dish. I would be entirely happy and comfortable with that big bowl and a spoon. The fresh herb flavors popping through with hints of smoked gouda in every creamy extremely satisfying bite!
-
Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Dip
I was torn on whether to call this beautiful bowl of roasted goodness a dip or a spread. Not that it really matters, but considering I dipped my way through its photo shoot, I settled on Roasted Tomato & Red Pepper Dip. Had there been a baguette in the house, this most certainly would have been called a spread. You decide.

Pasta alla Norma {Eggplant Pasta}
Pasta alla Norma is an Italian pasta and eggplant dish with roots in the ancient port city of Catania, Sicily. My husband’s ancestors also have roots in Catania! Lucky for me it’s where we visited on a dream vacation a few years back.

Vegetarian Black Bean Chili
Vegetarian Black Bean Chili begins like many of our soup and chili recipes….with a medley of carrots, onions and celery. But that’s just the beginning of this flavor journey.

Walking 7-Layer Mexican Dip
Without question, 7-Layer Mexican Dip will be included in our Game Day appetizer spread. While the guest list will be dramatically reduced, the enthusiasm will remain high and the food options plentiful.

Jamaican Vegetable Rundown
Jamaican Vegetable Rundown is a savory veggie stew simmered in luscious coconut milk. It was the perfect side dish for our Jamaican themed dinner.

Southwest Vegetarian Tacos
The key to bringing big flavor to these Southwest Vegetarian Tacos is to oven roast the veggies. Virtually any vegetables will work in these tacos, but I love sweet potato, onion and zucchini as my base – I added corn and jalapeño to give it a nice Southwest flavor flare.
-
Butter Bean Salad {with Lemony Thyme Vinaigrette}
This Butter Bean Salad is loaded with fresh herbs & veggies then dressed in Lemony Thyme Vinaigrette. I adore the creamy texture of butter beans and how nicely they pair with fresh bright flavors. It’s the perfect side dish or healthy vegetarian meal.
