Marinated Zucchini Salad with Parmesan and Pepitas

I make this salad constantly during the summer: it's crazy easy to pull together, and it pairs well with and/or sauces so many summer favorites: grilled chicken or skirt steak, fish prepared almost any way. It's lovely with goat cheese or mozzarella on toast. I often eat it for lunch, straight from the bowl.

Cucumber and Onion Salad, aka Cukes-n-Onions

A southern garden staple, a quick sweet and tart way to use those abundant cucumbers. This is less a recipe than it is a method. It is quick and easy, simple and refreshing. I've tried variations and I've eaten other people's variations, but I keep coming home to the way my mom did this almost every day when Daddy's garden was in full swing. Some things cannot be improved upon.

Watermelon snowball surprise

I must admit I'm not a huge fan of cheese and melon salads and with this contest I challenged myself to create something new that combines cheese, watermelon and prosciutto. With a hint of mint and for crunchiness (as I don't like the food too creamy) I added pistachio. The combination it's a winner as I was torturing myself if to add some smoked paprika or maybe a hint of chilly might have been more appropriate, but I have to say that goat cheese, pistachio and grilled watermelon it's a good combination for this sumptuous and delicate recipe. It's has everything: saltiness from prosciutto, caramelized flavour from the grilled watermelon, it's creamy and crunchy in the same time. Hope you'll enjoy it as much as we did!
