Tomato and Arugula Spaghetti Salad

Tomato and Arugula Spaghetti Salad

We’ll never say ‘no’ to some delicious spaghetti, especially when mixed with a refreshing salad. So, give the rich, ‘al dente’ textured pasta a refreshing boost by tossing juicy tomatoes, arugula, and savory basil. The pasta will also benefit from the balsamic vinegar’s sour touch and oregano-flavor.

Anchovy and Spinach Cannelloni

With this hearty, cheesy, and creamy cannelloni pasta you must give a special attention to the stuffing. Use spinach and make it extra-cheesy with feta and parmesan. Give it extra-flavor with garlic, oregano, and nutmeg. Top with a tasty anchovy and parmesan mixture. For an even tangier touch, lay the tubes on a bed of canned tomatoes.

Risotto with Red Wine Sauce

Risotto With Red Wine Sauce

For this piece of northern Italian cuisine, you need to pan-cook the rice in chicken stock and white wine. Also, don’t forget the olive oil, onion, parmesan, and butter for a proper risotto texture and a truly delicious dish. Serve this with style, topping it with a mildly sweet red wine reduction sauce. It concentrates the red wine’s flavor and enriches it with rosemary, thyme, and onion.

Double Cheese Polenta

Double Cheese Polenta

You can prepare polenta not just as a porridge. Here is just one of the many alternatives. Let it cool, cut it into different shapes and bake it together with feta. But this wouldn’t be cheesy enough for us, so make it extra-cheesy by adding parmesan on top. Serve it as is or as a side dish. And although cold, reheated, or grilled is also OK, we think eating it warm is much better.

Caprese Salad

Caprese Salad

Fresh mozzarella has a soft texture and a delicate flavor. It’s not mandatory to use both ovoline and perline mozzarella for the salad, but they look nice on the plate. Still, we suggest to combine those two mozzarella types and serve it when you feel the need to pamper yourself.
