Honey Ice Cream

An extremely simple ice cream that showcases the flavor of any honey. Use a strong, high-quality honey; the darker the honey, the stronger the flavor. Due to the viscosity of honey, this ice cream is incredibly smooth and scoops extremely well even after many hours in the freezer.

Jicama and Mango Salad

A beautiful vibrant salad, refreshing to the palate and a perfect pairing to summer BBQ meals like mahi mahi tacos! Eat it as a side or add it as a slaw to your tacos. It all comes together with a lime, jalapeno, and cilantro vinaigrette. The sweet and spicy tang of the dressing, and crunch of the jicama is a perfect flavor to satisfy any taste bud during the hot days!

Chicken Salad Stuffed Avocados

In my eyes anything with avocados is a WIN. Don't know what to do about leftovers, stuff it in an avocado, you can't go wrong :) This is an extremely versatile recipe, any leftovers would go GREAT!! Leftover chili? Can of tuna sitting in your pantry? Leftover salad or slaw? Leftover chicken --> chicken salad stuffed avocados. Add some Sriracha to give it a "kick" and you're in for a protein-packed treat! Made with greek yogurt, no mayo, no oil, but lots of great seasoning. The chicken salad included leftover organic roasted chicken I had done the Sunday night before. Feel free to adjust the ingredients, add more veggies, add more spices, add salsa & black beans for a tex-mex version! Endless possibilities! The PICTURE reflects my simple chicken salad made with a greek yogurt dressing, celery, roasted shallots and raisins.

avocado and egg salad

This avocado and egg salad is a perfect marriage of winter seasonality: ripe avocado and citrus. I first had this salad with a lemon picked off the tree in a backyard in Tel Aviv, an avocado from the Shuk ha Carmel and a creamy hard-boiled egg. Together with some salt and a fork, the ingredients blend together to form a delicious salad, spread, dip, or however you want to eat it. It can be spread on a piece of toast or eaten all by itself. If you really like lemon (as I do), I recommend adding an extra half lemon.

Gingersnap Icebox Cake for Abbie's birthday

Y'all know aargersi--whose real name is Abbie--she's the long time Food52er known for being fun and funny and ENTHUSIASTIC!!! Turns out she's exactly like that in real life--and as generous and sweet as she is fun and funny. She organizes Ladies Lunch here in Austin---once a month she chooses a restaurant (or food truck or picnic spot), sends out an email, and whoever can shows up, hangs out, has lunch. I found out that she recently had a birthday--a big one--(I won't tell you the number, but it starts with 5…) so we turned the tables on her and made this month's ladies lunch a birthday party. I wanted to bake a cake, but my husband begged me not to turn the oven on, so I decided on icebox cake. The local grocery store didn't have Nabisco chocolate wafers, but they did have really good ginger snaps, so ginger snap it was. I wasn't sure if they would soften overnight (they were really crunchy) so I kind of overdid it on the whipped cream, but no one seemed to mind.

Serves about 8 unless Arielle's son Henry is also there, and then all bets are off

This is one of those 5 minute lunches. The leeks are literally cooked in 5 minutes, so are everything else. You just have to do a bit of multitasking, we're not talking about roasting pine nuts here (don't mess with those). It's nutritious, cozy and delicious.
