Italian ragus tend to be long-simmered dishes, but a French ragout is a quicker affair, a thick, cheesy stew. Tossed over pasta, this one is a true fusion, a halfway point between ragu and ragout.
This is a very easy recipe (just the kind I like!) that I got from my sister-in-law. I like to make it in winter as a way to capture the barbecues of summer.
Men who eat fish just once a month have fewer ischemic (blocked blood vessel) strokes, says a Harvard study. For your dose, try this easy summer recipe.
When your garden is full of fresh veggies, this is the recipe to reach for. All you need is a salad and you have a terrific late-summer meal.--Debbie Jones, California, Maryland
This is a quick and refreshing no cook vegetarian meal. Basil, mozzarella and tomato on Italian bread. Great for those hot summer evenings when you don't feel like cooking.
This salad is dressed with a lime vinaigrette and has lots of crunch and flavor with a little jalapeno pepper pop. Use summer fresh ingredients from the garden or farmer's market.
I make this recipe for almost any occasion - it's popular with company and at potluck dinners, and I've passed it around to many friends. My husband and I are growing lots of squash this summer...all for this quiche!
