Basil Pesto perfect for Italian-Style Sandwiches
Jul 31, 2022
This special-occasion spread tastes richer than its calories imply. Press it into a pretty widemouthed bowl for serving and surround the bowl with lots and lots of crisp cracker bread or grilled baguette slices.
This no-cook sauce is so easy that this dish is ready in the time it takes to cook the pasta. Depending on the sun-dried tomatoes you use, you may need to add salt.
Flecked with zucchini, basil and mushrooms, this quick dish highlights simple sunny flavours.
Crunchy cashews meets sweet melon in this meal-sized chicken salad.
This vegetable stew is based on a traditional Italian stew called ciambotta. It's best served with crusty bread to soak up the flavourful juices.
Pack this in a container with separate compartments — the pasta tossed with some dressing in one, the eggs, tuna and red pepper in other compartments. Your child will have fun building the salad and it won't become soggy while it waits in the fridge at school for lunchtime.
Fresh basil, hearty beans, piquant sun-dried tomatoes and al dente pasta make the perfect summer salad.
