Wilted Arugula with Anchovies and Fried Bread Crumbs

Weeknight Lemon Parsley Pasta
This lemon parsley pasta recipe is a favorite weekday staple. It's flavorful and simple, but also crowd-pleasing enough for a weekend dinner party.
Danish Cucumbers
These crisp cucumbers were a favorite during hot summers on my grandparents' farm in New Hampshire. Cucumbers are thinly sliced, salted and pressed with a weight in the fridge, drawing out much of the excess moisture. They’re then drained, tossed with apple cider vinegar and dipped in sour cream or crème fraîche if you're feeling fancy. Refreshing, extremely simple and a great alternative to a bowl of chips.

These will be the first to go at any cocktail party.

Combine all chipotle pulled pork recipe ingredients in a slow cooker. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Pork should shred easily with two forks when fully cooked.
Black and White Tofu
Caution: contains century egg, the source of umami so intense that most cannot handle. Proceed at your own discretion. Also, it's dangerously addictive.
Rhubarb Bellini
How could fresh rhubarb syrup topped with dry sparkling wine not be the perfect spring and summer drink?! Especially for brunch. Or a picnic. Or just because.
Smashed Cucumber Salad in a Jar
This is one of the first things I make as soon as anything remotely resembling summer hits. It's a cross between a pickle and a salad really, since it only takes a couple of hours for the flavours to develop from start to finish. Have it with your favorite Asian saucy noodles, dumplings, even pork belly baos (I've shared a recipe for that too).

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.
