I first had this summery salad at a family reunion, and it's become one of my husband's favorite dinners. Sometimes, we leave out the chicken and serve it as a side dish instead. —Jennifer Madsen, Rexburg, ID
Laced with a splash of wine, this hearty soup is packed with garden-fresh nutrition and veggies! Leafy escarole adds color and plenty of vitamin A. You could substitute spinach or kale for the escarole if you wish. Lea Reiter — Thousand Oaks, CA
Yellow-red Mr. Stripey tomatoes give this ice a light hue. Use red or purple tomatoes if you want a darker granita, if you prefer. Mixing purple basil with deep-green Italian basil yields a nuanced flavor and a lovely garnish.
Lemon is a bright partner for the caramelized leeks in this dish of Braised Chicken with Honey-Lemon Leeks. The leeks cook twice: They are sautéed, then roasted to meld with the honey and lemon.
This recipe was given to me by a friend. I have made it several times, and it doesnt last long! It does take a while to prepare, but it is worth it. Great presentation and delicious flavors.
This sweet-tart salsa recipe features crisp, slightly acidic Spartan apples, though Fuji, Jonagold, and Liberty apples would also work nicely. Serve with pork or roast chicken.
