Avocados are one of my favorite foods- their rich, creamy texture is a delight to experience. I came up with this dressing recipe as an alternative to ranch dressing.
Chimichurri is an Argentinian sauce that’s used for grilled meat. The basic recipe consists of chopped parsley, garlic, pepper, olive oil, and vinegar- try using fresh herbs from your garden to make a concoction that is truly original!
Summer has finally arrived! It’s time to start cooking outside on the grill, and experimenting with cold soups and fruit dishes. One of my favorite summer-time soups is made with ripe, oily avocados. This thick, rich soup will cool your palate and ignite your taste buds.
Some of my favorite ingredients to work with are rich buttery sauces, asparagus, salmon and lump crabmeat. Put all of these components together and you have Salmon, Oscar Style. This is an extremely rich, delicious dish.
Summer is right around the corner and if you’re like me, most of your cooking will be done on the grill outside. Salmon is a meaty fish that lends itself well to kebabs. Try skewering different veggies and fruit with your fish- the possibilities are endless!
One wouldn’t think that bacon and seafood goes well together, but in this case it does. The natural sweetness of the sea scallops provides a surprising flavor balance when served with thick slabs of bacon.
This is a particularly rich, delicious seafood dish. It can be made with all kinds of seafood- try experimenting with different ingredients and herbs if desired.
Summer is almost here and it’s time to start experimenting with refreshing, seasonal meals. This particular ceviche dish can be made with a myriad of fresh seafood- use your favorite!
Summer is almost here and it’s time to get creative with some salad recipes. Raspberry Vinaigrettes pair beautifully with summer greens and fresh fruit.
