Just because we are watching what we eat and eating healthily does not mean that have to give up tasty dishes.
It is well known that the Mediterranean diet has many significant health benefits, including reducing the risk of heart disease and many types of cancer. An Italian diet contains many grains, vegetables, legumes, and fruits, all of which we know are good for us. Seafood also plays a very important part in the diet, and portion sizes, of meat in particular are often smaller. The most significant factor however, is probably that the fat used in Italian cooking is mostly monounsaturated, from olive oil, rather than saturated. If these facts still don't convince you an Italian diet is a healthy choice, take a look at these recipes!
