Layered Vegetable Torte

Getting this vegetable torte right takes a little time. You really must grill (or pan-grill) or roast all the vegetables well — they have to become quite tender — before assembling the torte. Ultimately, you want the vegetables to almost melt together. Grilling is the technique of choice because it gives the vegetables a hint of smokiness.

Beets and Herbs Salad

Isn't it time to take a break from roasted beets with goat cheese? I thought so. This past weekend, I tossed beets, still warm, with sherry vinegar, Dijon and olive oil. The vinegar makes their sweetness sing; the mustard gives them grit. And a spray of chopped herbs -- basil, tarragon, chives and mint -- beckons the doubters.

Serves 4 to 6

Super Speedy and Simple Sumer Sangria

Last Minute Creations are the best! I was relaxing outside on my porch about to have some dinner and halfway through my meal, thirst overwhelmed my palate. I got up, and walked over to the kitchen to fetch a drink. I saw an opened bottle of wine, and cans of seltzer and knew that I had some orange juice in the fridge--so I thought, hmmm...looks like I can make some sangria.

Lime rickey with sweet basil

I almost never drink anything other than coffee, wine or beer (oh, and water, of course!)...unless it is made with lime juice. After moving to the East Coast, I developed a penchant for lime rickeys. They're a refreshing summer drink, made even more delicious and refreshing with the addition of some muddled herbs. Mint is, of course, good, but I love the mild licorice punch added by using sweet basil. And, if you want to add a splash of rum or vodka, I definitely won't stop you!

Years ago we had an appetizer at Hudson's on the Bend here in Austin that was an heirloom tomato stuffed with herbed goat cheese. We recreated it at home and make them often for a side dish with an abundance of our fresh garden tomatoes.

Basil and lemongrass Iced Tea

A friend brought me some Lemongrass tea from the Seychelles and since I grow Basil and always have a good amount or I freeze excess basil. I have used this recipe many times. It was originally made with lemongrass stalks-which are more accessible. I will give the recipe with the stalks.

Sunny Side Up with Basil

I grew up in Greece. Basil is everywhere! My grandmother would make this for me at least a few times a week. Not only did we have fresh basil we had fresh eggs from our chickens! I think of my childhood and my grandmother every time I eat eggs with basil. Make sure you have a slice of bread to mop up the yummy olive oil!

easy caprese

This is a great way to make caprese that is 'finger food' - it also holds up well at potluck events and is great for vegetarians. Nice thing about this is that you can be as fancy or as basic as you want. Sometimes you may want to cut the grape tomatoes and mozzarella in half when assembling the skewer - putting the cut side towards each other with a piece of basil in between.

FRESH TOMATO-BASIL SAUCE "COOKED" BY THE SUN

Minimal is one of my favorite words on a hot summer day. That is when I pluck a few heirloom tomatoes from my garden and mix them with fresh basil also right out of the garden. The sun ripened tomatoes plucked out of their garden nests taste like they have continued ripening for maximum flavor . The basil, the only herb used, adds the starring flavor burst. Together they smell and taste like summer!

Tropical Basil Bites

This is a zingy little mouthful, an appetizer in the truest sense of the word, since it awakens your appetite and refreshes your palate. It takes only moments to prepare, even children can make them, and kids will love to eat them as much as adults do. They're perfect as a starter for an Asian meal, or as a nibble with tropical cocktails on a summer day.
