Marinated chicken, spinach, feta, and sun-dried tomatoes are tossed with dressing and served on grilled or toasted slices of focaccia bread. This is a great appetizer any time of year!
Top the warm pasta with grated ricotta salata, which has a dense texture and salty flavor. Get the recipe for Rigatoni With Sauteed Eggplant and Tomatoes.
For this classic Italian appetizer, I chose Gorgonzola for its sweet creaminess, but any quality blue cheese will do. A slice of tart apple is a nice foil to the garlic and cheese.
Eggplant slices are dipped in egg and bread crumbs and then baked, instead of fried. The slices are layered with spaghetti sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
An easy and quick way to prepare eggplant, and tasty too! I serve it with sliced fresh tomatoes, fresh green beans and bread and butter. An inexpensive meal from my childhood and still a favorite!
