Giada is honoring three women who do amazing things for others. In their honor, she's hosting a luncheon with a light and fresh menu featuring Pan-Fried Salmon With Green Goddess Tzatziki, a Quinoa Salad With Roasted Eggplant and Apples, and Iced Tea With Berries, Melon and Mint.

In this episode, Jeff is creating sandwiches inspired by Italian food. After a lesson at Chicago's Ricobene's, Jeff makes The Comiskey, a breaded steak sandwich with a roasted red pepper sauce. He also cooks up a Grilled Artichoke Sub with fresh ricotta and a roasted garlic spread. And just to shake things up a bit, he makes Chicken Lemon Orzo Soup.
