I’ve lightened up this broccoli soup – leaving all the flavor and very little of the fat! Usually cream of broccoli soup is made with heavy cream, but this recipe doesn’t use a drop…and it’s absolutely yummy!

Roasted Vegetable Gnocchi
Out to dinner one night I had a yummy veggie gnocchi made with zucchini – it was really good – so of course I just had to make it at home for everyone else to enjoy…I added cauliflower & carrots to the mix for more flavor. Really, is there anything better than roasted carrots? Once the gnocchi is cooked, everything is combined in a lovely tomato-basil sauce…delicious!

Rosario’s Chicken Pie
This is one of those once-a-year meals…you know the kind…when you use every pot in the kitchen and have a huge clean up…should I be telling you this before you even read it? My mother-in-law used to make this dish and I always loved it. Her recipe could feed a huge family, so I reduced the ingredients to feed four and put my own spin on it.

Old Fashioned Pot Roast
