Can't get your family to eat their green leafy vegetables? Then try this baby on them.
Rich with garlic and oil and just a touch of spice, there's nothing boring about this side dish.
A curly pasta is ideal for a dish like this one because it stands up well to
the vegetables and traps the creamy, rich sauce in all its little nooks and
crevices.
Italian cooking is simply brilliant in its understanding of how tastes work together. A simple starter course,
crostini creates a symphony of flavors that burst on the tongue, making us weak with pleasure.
Sweet, savory, satisfying, with just a hint of bitter to lift the flavors to our palates--and our spirits to
food heaven. A snap to make, it's best to prepare this just before serving.
