Fagioli Al Uccelletto “Tuscan Baked Beans”
These are the beans I served with the Italian-Style Slow-Roasted Pork Roast with Oranges & Onions . They go perfectly with it. You can use canned beans instead of soaking the beans overnight, if you want to make it easier. These beans are a typical dish from Tuscany, particularly in the Florence area.

The salad is light and refreshing, and it is perfect for a picnic, potluck, or barbecue. Feel free to add some cheese, like feta or fresh mozzarella.

Broccoflower with Garlic, Balsamic, Basil & Parmesan
This Broccoflower with Garlic, Balsamic, Basil & Parmesan is a vibrantly colored side dish. Broccoflower is a cross between broccoli and cauliflower, two vegetables that are actually so closely related that they can be easily cross-pollinated. One type of broccoflower looks just like white cauliflower, but is lime-green in color.

Roasted Parmesan Tomatoes is a great addition to any salad. Roasting tomatoes helps to concentrate the flavor. I served these with an arugula salad. You can use different kinds of cheeses like goat cheese, mozzarella, cheddar, etc.
