Most of the Italians based their cuisine on the Mediterranean diet...
Breakfast: The typical Italian breakfast is made of a hot beverage, like cappuccino or coffee, with something sweet to eat- cake, cookies, pastries, brioche, croissants, or toast and jam.
Afternoon snack: a yogurt or some fruit would be a good choice for example.
Lunch: Lunch in Italy is the biggest meal of the day, usually eaten between 12:00 - 2:00pm. A typical lunch consists of a starter (antipasto), a first course (pasta, risotto or soup), a second (meat, chicken or fish), cheese and dessert, all topped off with coffee. Still hungry?
Dinner: Dinner is served very late. Most restaurants close after lunch and reopen at 8 p.m. The typical family dinner is still a tradition. Light and refreshing food is served, tomatoe salad or a fried egg, and lots of bread and salumi make up the casual family dinner.
