I make chicken parmesan for my husband, and I serve it with a side of angel hair pasta with mushrooms and artichokes covered with the same marinara sauce I use on the chicken and topped with shredded Italian cheese blend. I also serve it with some garlic cheese toast made by putting butter, garlic powder, parsley flakes, and the Italian cheese blend on sliced Italian bread and then baking in a 350 degree oven for 10 minutes. The whole combination is delectable. If you want a veggie side, try some leaf lettuce with halved cherry tomatoes, mozzarella cheese balls, and basil leaves and drizzle with either Italian or Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing. Enjoy your meal!

Parsley potatoes. Use red potatoes and cut into bite size chunks. Then spread on a baking pan. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, pepper, and parsley. Bake in the oven at 350 for about 10-15 minutes. Delicious!

Penne in a simple but spicey marinara sauce (or butter, garlic and parmesan) and some swiss chard sauteed in olive oil, red wine vinegar and freshly ground black pepper.
