Simply Giada

Giada and her daughter Jade need a kid-friendly, portable lunch for a picnic under the Brooklyn Bridge, so Giada makes quinoa pancakes, green fried rice, crispy broccoli and cauliflower, and roasted banana and peanut butter cupcakes.

Giada offers recipe and menu-planning tips to make eating well easy and convenient. She prepares warm quinoa oatmeal, chicken broth, white bean and escarole soup, fusilli with chicken and broccoli rabe and a skillet brownie.

Giada De Laurentiis makes a romantic dinner of substantial dishes that are also light in fat and calories: bison bolognese, chicken milanese and simple braised mushrooms.

Giada De Laurentiis prepares dishes for delicious and colourful dinner parties that still follow a healthy diet, including egg bites, brown rice stuffed peppers, roasted trout with hazelnut gremolata and mixed berries with spiced maple syrup.
