Simple meal and dessert recipes that I have collected over the years from different media outlets (and some of my own), have helped me in preparations for my busy family of six. In my thirty something years of family cooking, I have discovered that simplicity works the best in flavour and time management. Being of Italian descent born in Canada, I am fortunate to experience a fusion of delicious cuisine. Hope you enjoy the creations because after all, I consider cooking an art. Buon Appetito!

In a large pot add the extra virgin olive oil, the onion, the garlic, the carrots, the celery and bay leaves. Add salt and pepper as desired.
Saute` all the ingredients for about 5 minutes or until the onion is translucent.
Add the water, the potatoes and the crushed tomatoes.

Once the escarole are cooked to your liking, add parsley and serve with some parmigiano cheese if you like.

Foodie Fran's Notes: when soup is done, add parmesan cheese and 1 beaten egg. I found a big difference in taste!
