Bagna Cauda Bruschetta

This sublime starter (pronounced bahn-yah kow-dah broo-skeh-tah) depends on the richness of extravirgin olive oil. The dish is based on the classic Northern Italian appetizer of warm olive oil, anchovies, and garlic that's usually served with vegetable dippers. Here, the potent dip is drizzled onto bread and then topped with a colorful mix of grilled vegetables. Although the fat percentage is high, it's much lower than what you will find in traditional versions of this specialty; it's also low in saturated fat.

Southwestern Pizza with Black Beans and Corn

As a regular visitor to the Columbus Brewing Company in Columbus, Ohio, I probably ate their Sante Fe Pizza at least once a week. I just couldn't resist that spicy black bean "hummus" spread on chewy flat bread and topped with plenty of cheese, no matter how many times I promised myself that I'd branch out. Moving away left a definite void in my life. Here is my small ode to both the CBC pizza and the incredible folks, my friends, who work there.

Rosemary Focaccia

I'll be honest with you: I don't care for focaccia that's topped with a lot of stuff. I like my focaccia to be a simple, herby bread with the emphasis on salt and olive oil. I may allow for one or two additions besides the sea salt, olive oil and herbs. But that's it. You may feel differently, and of course, that's just fine. You can use this recipe as a base for all your favorite focaccia toppings. But just for today, try it plain and simple with a glass of deep red wine and maybe a wedge of cheese on the side. It's really quite delicious!

Breakfast Grain Salad

The search for tasty, healthy breakfast dishes is a neverending quest. I am always looking for a breakfast that can be made ahead and munched on for several days, offering a tasty, easy meal each weekday morning. In the winter, my standby is my beloved steel-cut oatmeal, and sometimes, if I have extra time on the weekend, I'll make up a big pan of egg casserole with seasonal vegetables. But now, as the summer heats up, what to make? Here's my latest venture: A fluffy, tender grain salad with oats, quinoa, and millet, nutty with hazelnuts and bursting with blueberries.

Seared Sea Scallops with Gingered Pea Purée and Cilantro Gremolata

At this time of year, whenever I go the market English peas always accompany me home. They are nature's superior answer to fast food, preferably eaten straight from the shell, with no need for cooking. When I do get around to cooking them, a favorite preparation is as an accompaniment to shellfish. The briny sweetness and pearly coral colors of the fish perfectly compliment the sweet, vividly green peas. In this recipe, crispy seared scallops are served on a bed of puréed peas spiced with fresh ginger and topped with cilantro gremolata. It's a beautiful presentation, either as individual amuse-bouches, an appetizer or an entrée. A variation of this recipe even made an appearance at the Bay area Food52 potluck. - TasteFood
