Kale, Farro, and Sweet Potato salad with Pomegranate Dressing
A colorful dish for any day
Roasted Asparagus and Fennel with Charred Lime
I intended this dish to be a sprightly salad of shaved asparagus and fennel with a lime-chili vinaigrette. But when shaving the first spear of asparagus, I decided that I wanted something warm and bold in flavor. So I cranked up my oven, tossed the asparagus and fennel in a liberal amount of olive oil and chili flakes, and threw in a halved lime that was destined for my vinaigrette. I then slipped the whole pan under the broiler to enhance the charred flavors. I finished the dish with juice from the charred lime and fennel fronds. The charred lime heightened and married the already bold flavors. My dish was the complete antithesis of sprightly, but on a cool spring evening, it completely hit the spot.
Rochers
Trust me, this fancy French chocolate roshers recipe is a game day winning dessert. Four ingredients, 25 minutes active, low carb, and kid-friendly.
Jicama Stack
This recipe is proof that good things come in quick packages. Jicama matchsticks tossed in lime juice and any seasoning or rub mix in your pantry and then stacked jenga-style. I used togarashi - a Japanese seasoning made from red pepper, orange peel, sesame seed, seaweed and ginger - but you could use Mexican, Chinese, or BBQ rubs. The fact that the knife cuts are uneven makes it that much more fun to play!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Sandwich
Vegan, and gluten free chocolate chip cookie dough filling to be eaten between cookies, after hours, or with a broken heart.
Pear Vodka Martini
Delicious pear nectar is mixed with pear-infused vodka, simple syrup, and a squirt of fresh lemon juice. This pear vodka martini is juicy, simple and fruity.
Pander's Pomegranate Punch
"It's summertime and the livin' is easy" - just like this drink. Easy to remember, easy to make (and multiply), easy to drink with every menu. Take it to the beach, take it to the pool, take it to the patio - it's the perfect party drink. Even if it's a party of one.
Strawberry Margarita on the Rocks
We love a fruit cocktail made with real fresh fruit. This recipe for a strawberry margarita on the rocks uses real strawberries and no sweet and sour mix.
Hibiscus Raspberry Lime Tea
I love iced tea and lemonade in the summer but sometimes its nice to switch things up a little. Last summer I was addicted to a hibiscus spritzer they sold at a local restaurant. I could never quite figure out the recipe so I came up with this one. Its light, fruity, sweet but not too sweet and the color is just so happy!
Virgin Strawberry Daiquiri
Remember: Smoothies are not beverages, they're meal replacements, so keep their nutrition facts in mind when considering your overall diet plan. This fruity, slushy drink is a favorite among Caribbean vacationers. You can enjoy this non-alcoholic version anytime of the day--even for breakfast!

Southern Smoothie
Remember: Smoothies are not beverages, they're meal replacements, so keep their nutrition facts in mind when considering your overall diet plan. Peaches are undeniably the fruit of choice in the south, but you don't have to be southern to enjoy this beverage. Fresh buttermilk adds a pleasing tanginess and blends well with peaches. Tip: Use frozen peaches to achieve an icy smoothness. This recipe was written by the Healthline Editorial Team: http://www.healthline.com/health-recipes/southern-smoothie
Boozy Sun Tea
My favorite warm-weather beverage is sun tea, which my mother used to make in large jars and leave to steep in the backyard during the summer. I was trying to reimagine sweet tea vodka and lemonade in a way that wasn't so cloyingly sweet that merely thinking about it would give you a hangover. The subtle, mellow flavor of sun tea came to mind. The result is a refreshing warm-weather quaff that echoes the flavors of an Arnold Palmer (alcoholic or non), minus the overbearing sweetness, and without the pain the next morning. An excellent choice for daydrinkers who want to last the night, sip this concoction on a deck, on a patio, on a fire escape, on a rooftop, on a stoop, poolside, or anywhere else the sun is shining and summer is in the air.
Sole “en Papillotes” with Anchovy Brown Butter Sauce
Inspired by a dish described by Joseph Wechsberg in a magazine article written (I think) in the 1950s. The sauce can also be used with sautéed or grilled shrimp. So simple to make, so easy to love. I do hope you like this. ;o)
Springy Fennel Side – with Cool Weather Variation
Light, citrusy, perfect alongside an Easter ham or, when the days lengthen and the evenings are warmer, packed in a basket supper. Enjoy! ;o)
"Nut" Another Breakfast Shake
Breakfast shakes are oh so delicious and you can be so creative with them. This one is a very almond-y shake and I love it! Almonds are my favorite nuts and I try to incorporate them in my meals as much as I can. Did you know.... A fistful of raw almonds (~7) a day are good for your heart, brain function, has the good fats (monounsaturated fats), calcium, fiber and magnesium. I like to call them the alpha nut!
Banana-Date Drink
My mom loves making this drink for a mid-afternoon snack. I also enjoy it for breakfast because it really fills you up. Its simple and fast and super delicious! The best part is that it does not need any extra sugar because the banana and dates sweeten the drink perfectly. The hint of cardamom and nutmeg takes this drink to another level! Its almost has a chai like flavor to it.
Summer Strawberry Semifreddo
Refreshingly easy to make and so good when fresh strawberries are ready for picking.
Mini Bites

TOFU STRAWBERRY ICE CREAM
Yes tofu! You've got to trust me on this one. This recipe is made up of simple ingredients; not only does the tofu add extra protein, but it also makes the dessert super creamy! The recipe is also sugar-free and extremely easy to make. Ice cream lovers-rejoice!
Minted tomatillo salsa
This recipe is a simplification of a recipe published by Sue Torres in The New Greenmarket cookbook. When I ran across the recipe I was intrigued by putting mint in tomatillo salsa. Mint and tomatillo are a fresh and delicious combination. My method and ingredients are different that Sue Torres', but the flavor combination was inspired by her. I roast the tomatillos and keep it ultra simple, just tomatillos and mint. This salsa is delicious on chicken tacos.
Blackberry Lime Buttermilk Sherbet
Buttermilk is the liquid left behind after cream was churned into butter. Since almost all the fat is in the butter, buttermilk is naturally low in fat yet it still has a thick creamy texture. Today, commercially-made buttermilk comes in various fat amounts so be sure to look for the lowest.

Grilled Flat Iron Steak with Spicy Sriracha Sauce
The Steak in this recipe is actually marinated in some of the Sriracha Sauce with the rest served on the side. It's spicy and super tender when thinly sliced.
