Pasta & Other Italian Dishes

Eggplant Bake

Add some pepperoni, green peppers, even do it with zucchini, this recipe is yum. I also switch up the cheeses.

Pesto Pasta Salad

This recipe is from Rachael Ray. I think it has a fabulous pesto recipe which uses basil, parsley, & mint. I use cashews for the nut. YUMMY. For the meal, I usually add lots of different veggies & even chicken instead of just tomatoes. Makes a great main dish or side dish and it's good hot or cold.

Pizza

Pizza Crust

This is a good recipe for individual pizzas. We make all 8 crusts and use four for pizzas and four for dessert pizzas (put toppings on like cream cheese & fruit)

This is a very yummy and quick recipe for pizza sauce. I seldom let it simmer like recommended.
