If your summer garden is overflowing with zucchini, put it to work in Giada's weeknight-friendly pasta. Don't be scared by the addition of anchovy paste; you'll love the pop of salty, briny flavor it brings to the dish.
Lemon and Strawberry Sundaes
Think of these as Italian-style strawberry shortcakes. The sweet cake is made with creamy ricotta and lemon juice.
Cheesy Bacon and Hash Brown Frittata
If you have young helpers in the kitchen with you, follow Giada's lead and ask the kids to crack and whisk the eggs when prepping.
Chocolate Hazelnut Banana Bread
Thick swirls of your favorite chocolate hazelnut spread take Giada's moist banana bread to. the. next. level.
Chicken with Chickpea and Tomato Ragu
Giada lets the chicken finish cooking right in the tomato ragu so the meat absorbs all the comforting flavors.
Easy Pantry Chicken
Five ingredients, including the chicken — that's all it takes to make this fuss-free dinner. The mix of soy sauce and honey becomes a salty-sweet glaze you'll want to savor.
Since flank steaks tend to be pretty thin, they take only minutes to cook on each side. But be sure to let the meat rest for a bit before slicing it, so the juices have time to redistribute. (That'll help the steak stay moist!)
You know that springform pan hiding in your closet? You used it to bake a cheesecake once? It's time to dig it out, because Giada uses it to make a deeply comforting homemade pizza.
Picnic Pasta
Fresh celery and fennel add welcome crunch to this no-fuss pasta salad.
