Anna throws a puff pastry party featuring three baked delights. She begins with a spinach and artichoke crostata filled with fresh pesto, twists up savory pizza straws, and ends on a sweet note with chocolate-hazelnut swirls.

Instant Italian With Anna Gass

Puff Pastry Party

Anna shows just how versatile garlic can be in two flavorful dishes. She starts with shrimp scampi meatballs, a playful twist on the Italian American favorite, then finishes with garlic bread pasta, a creamy, crunchy dish that's comfort in every bite.

Garlic Goodness

Anna cooks up two quick and delicious one-pot recipes. She starts with chicken Florentine, a creamy dish with chicken, spinach and a splash of white wine. She then prepares acqua pazza, or crazy water fish, a classic Italian seafood dish simmered with tomatoes and wine.

One-Pot Wonders

No forks needed as Anna shares two playfully hands-on recipes. She starts with crispy baked chicken wings rubbed with her signature Italian spice blend, then serves a sweet surprise with cannoli nachos, a fun twist on the classic Italian dessert.

Chicken Wings & Cannoli Nachos

Anna makes vegetables the star with two family-friendly dishes. She begins by roasting a whole cauliflower and serving it with a bright Italian salsa verde. She then turns broccoli into a creamy pesto for a pasta dish that's bold, hearty, and irresistible.

Irresistible Vegetables

Anna proves that no two meatballs are alike as she reimagines her mother's beloved recipe into three unique dishes. A blend of beef, veal and pork forms the base for cozy meatballs in a blanket, delicate polpettini and crispy smashed meatball tacos.

No Two Meatballs Are Alike

Extra virgin olive oil takes center stage as Anna whips up midnight pasta, a classic spaghetti dish Italians serve to guests at the end of the night. She then transforms citrus-infused olive oil into a tender limoncello olive oil cake, dusted lightly with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.

Midnight Pasta & Limoncello Cake

Anna shows just how irresistible cheese can be in two dishes. She starts with hand-cut cheesy fries paired with an Italian-style spicy ketchup, then bakes cheesy frittata muffins loaded with eggs, making them perfect for a quick and satisfying breakfast on the go.

More Cheese, Please

Anna serves up two brunch showstoppers, starting with her cherry and cheese brioche bake, a hearty French-toast-style dish filled with cream cheese, cherries, and citrus. While it bakes, she makes frico morbido, Italy's irresistible take on a cheesy potato pancake, fried until golden and crisp.

Sweet Meets Savory Brunch

Anna whips up two cozy casseroles perfect for chilly nights. She starts by layering sliced fennel with creamy béchamel, breadcrumbs, and cheese for a decadent fennel casserole. She then transforms baked polenta into a hearty casserole topped with a rich sautéed mushroom sauce. Both dishes are flavorful, comforting, and perfect for sharing.

Cozy Casseroles

Not sure what to do with leftover rice? Anna transforms it into two show-stopping dishes. She reinvents an Italian classic with arancini casserole, a cheesy, prosciutto-packed bake that tastes just like a rice ball. She then fires up the wok for carbonara fried rice, mixing rice with pork and eggs for a creamy, protein-packed dish that delivers pure comfort in every bite.

Rice Reinvented

Anna shows how to make decadent tiramisu brownies by combining hazelnut paste, melted chocolate, and a light whipped cream mixture. She layers this mixture over brownies baked from scratch and coffee liqueur-soaked ladyfingers, creating a dessert that's indulgent, Italian, and irresistibly fun.
