Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Why are the simplest dishes often the best? Here, a few fine ingredients lift this sandwich from the 'something on toast' category to a special treat. It makes a delightful, balanced light lunch when fresh asparagus is in season.

Bocconcini Salad

Recipe by: Mario

Be the first to review it!

Bite-size balls of fresh mozzarella, known as bocconcini, make up this scrumptous salad. If possible, seek out mozzarella di bufala, made from water buffalo's milk, a specialty of central and southern Italy. It is a softer, creamier mozzarella than that made from cow's milk.

Boniet

Recipe by: The Iron Chef-SuziQ

Reviews(1)

Pronounced 'bun-yet,' this is an old Italian recipe from my Nonie's kitchen. It is made using mainly parsley and garlic and is meant to be eaten with crusty warm bread. It is almost sinful to share this secret recipe with the world, but I know you'll love it as much as my family and I do. Refrigerate overnight for best flavour.

Carbonara Lite

Recipe by: Liz_W

Be the first to review it!

I am not suggesting for a minute that spaghetti carbonara can be a diet food. However, if you are a fan of this creamy, comforting pasta dish and balk at the calories, here's a method that shaves a few off by omitting butter and cream. It's still yummy though!

Chickpea and tomato pasta sauce

Recipe by: Jan Cutler

Daz's Tomato Cheese Melt

Recipe by: daz1057

Be the first to review it!

This is my favourite starter of all time I've only ever found it in one restaurant and couldn't find it on the net so I tried to replicate as much as possible A simple yet tasty dipping tomato sauce with a blob of melted mozzerella in the centre and some toasted ciabatta bread on the side to dip. Variations. Why not use your favourite tomato sauce instead of the one below. You could mix up the type of tosted bread used to suit your own personal taste.

Death By Garlic

Ten cloves of garlic lightly browned in olive oil and tossed with parsley, dried crushed chillies, penne pasta and freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese. My brothers named this Death By Garlic.

Super easy carbonara, 10 mins cooking time, yummy dish. To make this recipe less fattening you can use light single cream and low fat ham instead of bacon. Serves two people, increase the pasta amount for additional people
