Giada's Pasta Primavera with Roasted Vegetables
The original version was labor-intensive because you had to not only dice all the vegetables, but also blanch them in different pots. My version cuts out the blanching, and instead you roast the vegetables and end up with a sweet, caramelized, intensely flavored bite. Consider doubling the recipe; it only gets better the next day.

Pasta Alla Zozzona
Rome is known for 4 famous pasta dishes, two of which are Amatriciana and Carbonara. This pasta, Zozzona (translation: dirty!) is a combination of the two. All the savory tomato flavor of Amatriciana with the rich, creamy decadence of Carbonara - all with some Italian sausage thrown in for good measure. What's not to love?

Fettuccine Al Burro
The kind of pasta that makes you sit back and say “Hello lover. Where have you been all my life?” With so few ingredients there is no reason why this one can’t stick around forever.

One Dish Shrimp Scampi
Shrimp scampi, but make it even easier. This version of the classic dish lets the oven do all the heavy lifting: roasting the tomatoes, garlic, and shrimp together to create an ultra-flavorful sauce while you boil the pasta. Once the pasta is ready, it gets tossed straight into the baking dish with plenty of parm, lemon, and basil for a bright, garlicky, perfectly saucy meal. It’s simple, effortless, and packed with bold Italian flavors—proof that the best recipes don’t have to be complicated.

Consider doubling the recipe; it only gets better the next day.When I have it on hand, I love to use Dario Cecchini's Tuscan Salt Blend in place of the salt and dried herbs - just season to taste.
