Zoodles with pesto, chicken breast and all your favorite green veggies. I used peas and broccoli but it is equally great with scallions, kale, pea pods, and more mixed in. Tasty, quick to make, few dishes, no crazy ingredients and super healthy – one of the zoodle dishes I’d actually make for company.
Pizza All’Amatriciana
Bucatini All’Amatriciana is a pasta dish from Rome – bucatini refers to the long tubular pasta, and All’Amatriciana to the bacon tomato sauce. This pizza uses the sauce on a crispy pizza crust with fresh mozzerella. Believe me when I tell you, this pizza will be entirely gone by the end of the night.

Pasta with Chicken Sausage and Broccoli Rabe
A lightened-up Italian classic, this dish uses the slightly bitter flavor of broccoli rabe to offset the sumptuous flavor of sausage.

Sausage Pie with Peas and Pearl Onions
A crispy crust sits atop chicken sausage, caramelized peas, and pearl onions swimming in sausage and beer pan gravy. Savory and buttery, this Sausage Pie with Peas and Pearl Onions is somewhere between a cottage pie and a chicken pot pie – and every bit as delicious as both.
