Baked Gnocchi w/Roasted Tomatoes & Basil
Although the recipe is baked in the Pinterest post, you can honestly brown them in a LIGHTLY BUTTERED SAUTEE PAN or you can buy the frozen kind and boil them, like regular pasta: the choice really is yours in how you choose to prepare this dish. As well, the tomatoes can be sliced, seasoned and sauteed or they can be roasted/broiled: the combo of how to prepare this dish are endless, and it should all take under 30 minutes total.
Apple, Arugula, Brie & Pancetta Flatbread
I don't eat pork (Pancetta is Italian smoked bacon) of any kind...but that doesn't mean that you don't! So what if you want to die early, with arteriosclerosis hardening your insides?!!! When you're making and eating this delicious beast, the die will be worth it...unless you make one simple substitute and swap out the Pancetta for TURKEY BACON. Less fat, less salt, crispy, full flavor, and you can enjoy this appetizer (or meal, depending on how big you make it) without fault. YAY!!!
Portuguese Scallops
This plated dish is a personal favorite of mines. Growing up Portuguese, there were tons of seafood (baked, fried, broiled, and pan seared) to be eaten and enjoyed...along with Italian food for variety. Thus, I had the opportunity to indulge in all sorts of Scallop based dishes, but this one happens to be a favorite. The owner of said dish, "Through Oana's Lens", left their recipe on the post, and since this is a pretty difficult one to "wing it" in the kitchen, I will be posting it below. Cook it, eat it, enjoy it, and thank me for being ever so gracious to have shared this with you.
Bien Provecho!!!
