PROSCIUTTO CARBONARA WITH SPINACH
This lighter carbonara makes a quick comfort food meal during warmer weather. Prosciutto takes the place of traditional guanciale, and stirring in a handful of nutritious baby spinach makes it a commendable choice for a weeknight dinner.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat oil and half of prosciutto over medium; cook, stirring occasionally, until prosciutto is crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels; crumble. In a bowl, whisk together whole eggs, yolks, and cheese.
- Cook pasta in a pot of salted boiling water 1 minute less than package instructions. Reserve 1 cup pasta water, then drain. Slowly whisk 1/4 cup pasta water into egg mixture. Add pasta and spinach to skillet, then slowly add egg mixture to pasta.
- Stir constantly over low heat until sauce thickens and clings evenly to pasta and spinach wilts slightly, 3 to 5 minutes; add more pasta water as needed to create a silky sauce. Stir in all prosciutto. Serve with more cheese and pepper.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly oil a 9x9 inch square baking pan.

ITALIAN SPINACH PIES
This is my favorite snack! I love spinach and I love all the variations on this recipe. I remember making these with my great-grandmother, grandmother and mother every time a special occasion rolled around. We ate them hot, cold, or room temperature. The trick is to get the spinach as dry as possible! You will love these if you love spinach.

Steps:
- Heat oil and butter up in a 12 inch skillet and add the garlic. Saute for a minute and then add pepper flakes and saute for another minute.Add the spinach and heat it through and taste and season with salt and black pepper.
- Separate dough into 8 portions and let rise until doubled, punch down and rest for 10 minutes. Roll each portion into a circle - not too thin that it tears. Fill one side with cooled spinach mixture, fold dough over and crimp the edge. Let rest while you pre-heat the oven to 375.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until crust looks done.
- Before baking you can mark the pies with letter H using a fork to distinguish the pies with hot pepper flakes from the plain.
- It's really simple. I think the more simple the better although I have added dried tomatoes and other things. Hope you try this.
