Plum Tart
Plum Tart

I cannot adequately describe my love for this tart nor am I willing to tell you how many I make and eat during plum season. Suffice it to say that this is a truly outstanding, scrumptious, perfect, should-be-your summer dessert!

Chicken Burgers with Preserved Lemon, Aleppo and Yogurt
Chicken Burgers with Preserved Lemon, Aleppo and Yogurt

Though not a beef burger fan, I do love the idea of burgers, especially during summertime when you can sit outside, crack open a watermelon, pour some sweet tea and enjoy the sunshine. As such, I need non-beef burgers in my repetoire, and I prefer that they not look like pancakes or pucks, sad seconds to the juicy beef patties sharing grill space. I love real veggie burgers but chicken and/or turkey make the best substitutes for the "real" deal. This recipe is inspired by a southwestern turkey burger recipe I once had (white meat and chili) and by a delicious Aleppo-yogurt chicken kebab recipe I found on epicurious (chicken, Aleppo, yogurt). It's lighter than air, super moist and completely satisfying.

Brussels Sprouts Slaw with Mustard Vinaigrette and Candied Pecans

Brussels Sprouts Slaw with Mustard Vinaigrette and Candied Pecans

This is one of the most popular recipes I’ve ever served. It’s perfect in every way and came from Epicurious. Look for Grade B pure maple syrup which has a more assertive maple flavor than its Grade A kin.
