In this episode, Lidia shares recipes that are quick to whip up and ideal for days when you don't have much time to cook. She starts off by making green beans with mint pesto, a fresh alternative to the well-known green beans with butter. For a sweet treat, Lidia makes chunky cherry bread pudding, one of her favorite ways to recycle day-old bread. Next on the menu is maremma-style steak, an impressive steak that anyone can make at home.
