Peach, Tofu, and Mint Salad

In the heat of summer when the peaches are great this is a nice departure from a caprese salad. We change it from Basil, Tomato and Mozzarella to Mint, Peach and Tofu. Balsamic, olive oil black pepper and flaky salt is the only addition it needs. If you are not comfortable charring the peaches it is great as is, but adding that smoky char to it really makes the dish.

Roasted Summer Squash with Shishito Peppers and Basil

This dish tastes like the beginning of summer. It is a simple dish with few ingredients so getting the best ingredients is important. It also happens to be a great dish served hot out of the skillet while doing well served later at room temperature for a snack. It looks best when you cut the squash in a few different shapes so that you get different textures for people to enjoy.

Asparagus with Mint and Meyer Lemon Salsa Verde


Asparagus always lets us know spring is truly here. We recommend making it to the market to get the freshest asparagus as you won’t have to snap off the bottoms that become fibrous with age. We think it is great roasted but love this cold version that you can prepare ahead of time to wow your guests. The mint salsa verde with meyer lemon and capers is just there to dress the asparagus and bring out that inherent sweetness. But just properly cooked asparagus with olive oil and flaky sea salt is fantastic.
