I love peas and this dish is the perfect side dish! Try my braised spring peas with your favorite Sunday Italian dinners!!

This recipe went great with my pan seared pork chops!

Thank you to my friends at DiFiori for the best pasta around!  Their gnocchi was amazing.  We love you guys.

Enjoy xo

I love making Jake many of his treats!  I know what's in them and he is so cute how is just sits with me in the kitchen waiting to eat up some treats!  He is such a great dog and makes us very happy.

If you know me then we are all aware of my love for peas!  Salmon is one of my favorites and the two of them combined is just heaven on a plate! Go ahead and make this paleo seafood recipe today!  Enjoy

I love my one-pot recipes and even though I needed a pan to boil the pasta there was no need for a colander nor a platter or bowl to serve the dish.  My beautiful pan served as a perfect serving dish! All of my dried herbs are from Simply Organic!

I used 2 hot and 2 sweet chicken sausage which added amazing flavor to the sauce!  You can also just add the frozen peas into the hot sauce!  This is a 30 minute meal perfect for a family of 4.  

When we enjoy pasta from a box there is only one I will serve my family (and myself). It has to be DeCecco Pasta!  

Tip: You can add in onion, peppers, zucchini or any other vegetables you have handy in the refrigerator.  Go ahead clean out that crisper draw and make this a hearty family meal!

If you love this recipe but don't want to use pasta!  Take a spaghetti squash and poke about 10 holes using a long metal skewer.  Put in the microwave for 10 minutes.  Let cool, slice, remove seeds then take a fork and add strands into the sauce.  Paleo dinner served... 

Risotto is a Northern Italian rice dish that is cooked for a long time stirring often.   A traditional risotto is cooked with a warm broth added slowly to create a creamy consistency. As a Paleo dish it takes less time to prepare and the cauliflower gives it a perfect risotto feel.

I remember my Nana would make a cup of coffee and grab her stool and site at the stove for an hour while preparing risotto!

This dish also looks amazing in my dish from Emile Henry!

Primavera is normally a pasta dish with spring vegetables.  I was at the farmers market this morning and picked up red peppers and had frozen peas and porcini mushrooms at home.  

This side dish was perfect with my leg of lamb roast I made for our Sunday dinner!

Enjoy

I have loves peas since as long as I can remember. My nana and I would always enjoy peas with almost every meal. Our favorite would be to pour our tomato sauce.

What makes my Risotto with Peas and Pancetta special is I cook the pancetta in the same pan as the risotto!  We took this picture at NBC Connecticut and added the pancetta at the end of the segment then shared with the staff.  What a great day..

I decided to create this dish because the veal looked really good, the asparagus were just perfect and I love peas.. This veal scaloppine with asparagus and sweet peas took some time and I had to stay at the stove but my husband and our company told me this was better than any restaurant meal. I will take that as a huge compliment!

This recipe is perfect if you are following the paleo diet but because I am Italian and was serving other Italian’s I made a batch of polenta. You can certainly make a cauliflower mash and it would be just amazing!.
