Although this meal,
Pastina with Peas and Carrots, may not be exactly figure friendly, it is certainly Sophie friendly. And we have always really liked it. Anything with mascarpone cheese is something I have a hard time resisting.
My camera has been through it. So just click on the link to see what it's supposed to look like. I had to show the cheese...mmm! Now, with the leftover mascarpone cheese, spread it on a croissant or toast and sprinkle a little powdered sugar on it for breakfast...good gravy! It will make you want to hop on a plane to Italy!
When I was teaching, I would watch the Food Network every Christmas break and summer--the t.v. would at least be tuned into it all day whether I was watching or not. Giada is one of my favorites because I love Italian (and any Mediterranean food in general). So this year since I've stayed at home I've been able to catch her show (a little) more often. This was a meal she made for some kids, but it looked really good to me, so Daniel and I have had it many times. And now Sophie gets to enjoy it!

Sophie is going to be an eater. Or at least it looks that way. :)
