If you’re looking for recipes that put a creative twist on the classic flavors of Italian cooking, then Giada’s your girl. This is the fourth cookbook from Food Network chef Giada De Laurentiis, and she has taken a contemporary approach to traditional recipes by making them lighter and more flavorful. Impress your friends with dishes like osso bucco (Giada’s version is made with turkey instead of veal), fish topped with a fennel and grapefruit salsa, and whole wheat linguine with green beans, ricotta and lemon.
The ingredients list for these recipes aren’t long which makes them easier to shop for at your grocery. If you’re cooking with little ones, you’ll likely get an enthusiastic response to the kid friendly pizza pot pie found in the (Not) Just for Kids section of the book. These recipes are great for quick weeknight meals as well as weekend entertaining (we’re dying to make Giada’s tomato, watermelon and basil skewers), so let’s get cooking!
