Default Is there such a thing as healthy Italian food?

I love Italian food. Pastas, garlic, onion, delicious sauces, ect. Is there any way to eat dishes like this and loose weight? I need low calorie or low fat recipies for Italian food. Anyone know any?

try this one..

Low Fat Italian-Style Chicken

This is a quick and easy recipe to make, requiring only four main ingredients. There's no clean-up, either, as the chicken breasts are cooked in foil packets. All that's needed to accompany this low fat Italian-style chicken are some vegetables on the side and perhaps some noodles.

INGREDIENTS:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup no-salt-added marinara sauce (like Trader Joe's organic)
1/2 cup reduced fat shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup freshly chopped basil

PREPARATION:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Tear 4 sheets of foil wrap measuring 12" by 18". Place one chicken breast in the center of each foil sheet. Spoon one-fourth of the marinara sauce over each chicken piece, followed by cheese and basil.

Bring up the sides of the foil and fold the top edge over twice. Seal the edges, leaving enough room for air to circulate inside. Place each packet on a large cookie sheet and bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Unseal foil packets carefully, as the steam will be extremely hot. Enjoy with noodles and vegetables.
Serves 4.
