I like veal and spinach cannaloni in white sauce or maybe rollatini or rovalini.Eggplant parm is good too.

I like an antipasta platter for apps.

Add a simple salad and some sauteed greens.


Happy Birthday!..........BTW

What's wrong with this picture? REMEMBER ..... this is YOUR birthday! Tell your family that you want to go to your favorite Italian restaurant --- their treat!! You deserve one day off and your birthday is it!!!!! Enjoy and Happy Birthday!!!
 
Here's some suggestions for a menu for a complete meal.
You could start with minestrone, a very flexible soup that could be as simple or complex as you like. And/or panzanella salad, very tasty and easy to make salad.
For the main course, Spaghetti Carbonara or Pasta Putanesca is an excellent choice, or possibly chicken cacciatorre or chicken parmesan. For dessert, the perenniel favorite is tiramisu.
Hope you let us know what you decide to do.
 
Okay, we had an antipasta salad, spaghetti carbonara, bread sticks, and italian cream cake. My husband and I also enjoyed a nice chilled glass of Moscato with dinner. I made the cake by myself, but my middle two girls helped with dinner, and we had a blast doing it. Thank you to everyone for your help!!
 
ARGHHH! I read this post only today!!! I can suggest a visit to my blog, it's all about Italian cooking recipes.
For a birthday, I can suggest this menu:
Fantasy of Crostoni, Lasagne, Rabbit in porchetta and if you have kids, you can combine with Polpettine. And, at the end, CAKE!
Strawberry delice or Classical Tiramisù (my version is a bit different from the classical one!)
Happy Birthday , sorry for late!
Greetings from Italy, Simona

Kadesma, forgive my frankness. English is an acquired language for me, therefore I take words "literally". I have a difficult time to understand your posts, most of the time. Are you also a non-native English speaking person?
