Seriously Italian: A Sicilian Breakfast To Beat The Heat

Love your recipes. I was raised in an Italian family and of course we had macaroni every Sunday. But the treat was the extra meatballs, for breakfast, before they were put in the gravy. We had fried meatballs on hard rolls with butter, and of course no matter how young you were, a cup of coffee with "Lots" of milk. I have tired to carry out this tradition when my children were still living at home, and now they are still carrying it on.

Eat for Eight Bucks: Spaghetti all'Aglio e Olio with Marinated Summer Vegetables

I am completely taken over by this dish. It was great, and my son was in heaven. Unfortunately, my husband would not taste it (does not like spaghetti with oil) and he missed a great meal. I am going to make this dinner for my daughter, using spelt pasta, since she is allergic to wheat products. I am sure the roasted tomatoes will give the spelt pasta a real boost. Thanks for the recipe.

Who Makes the Best Vanilla Ice Cream?

I really never checked any of the other brands' ingredients mentioned except Breyers. But we use Breyers, (if I'm not making my own) because it has no preservatives mentioned in the ingredients. My family trait is migraines from preservatives, and we usually try an avoid them.

Grilling: Barbecue Chicken

Another alternative to grilling chicken, is putting it in the microwave for 5 minutes. It is partially cooked, and then complete cooking on the grill with your barbecue sauce. It doesnt burn, since the chicken is partially cooked when in the microwave, and it is juicy,crispy and delicious when completed on the grill with your favorite sauce.
We also use this method for ribs. Except we boil the ribs in water until they are partially cooked, and then take them out and grill them with sauce. The meat is tender, juicy, delicious and crispy w/ the sauce that we basted on the ribs. There is no burning on the grill, because most of the fat was removed when the food is precooked.

Marvelous Mint Ice Cream

Thanks for the recipe, I have a yard full of mint (for those who don't grow mint -- try it, it comes back in tons.)
I can't wait to try the recipe. I also have a Cuisinart Ice Cream maker, and love it.

I am immediately going to my yard and pick some mint. Now, I don't only have to use it for tea, or Mint Julips
