I'm invited out for pasta and red clam sauce and was told I could
bring dessert if I wanted to. What would you suggest? Nothing cakey
or doughy, please, or too sweet. Thanks.

I would take biscotti with anise, I think.

Dessert is typically something sweet, you need to define "too" sweet. I
would bring spumoni. You could bring a cantaloupe. Of course it would
depend on this pasta with red clam sauce if I should even partake. I don't
much care for red clam sauce, and most folks just buy canned, which is
blech... and then to add insult to injury they serve it a la TIAD style,
with cheese. yik/gack

Not too sweet? Meringue lemon pie, ofcourse. It's my preferred dessert, now
that I have tasted it!!!!!

Update- it was a white clam sauce - and Sheldon, she used fresh clams
from a local clam farm - we saw them being steamed open. Her sauce
was loaded with garlic, some minced clams, the rest were served whole
with the shells - over linguini - had lots of plain bread for sopping
up - and a good tossed salad with feta. Had I been alone, I would've
licked the plate!!
I brought strawberry sorbet (all my market had other than lemon) and
made a pureed thing with dark cherries, some cranberry sauce (scratch)
and threw in a bit of Triple Sec. It was politely received, I think.
At least, they ate it.

Cannoli? Very Italian, but usually not too sweet. (Is that considered
dough-y? I personally don't think so)
