Southwestern Steak Salad

This evening I made this really great salad. I don't even know where to begin in describing it. Everything about it was delicious!

Blueberry crumble

It is blueberry season and one of my favorite ways to use them is in a simple crumble.

Grilled Chicken and Potatoes with Tomato and Cucumber Salad

Last night I made this very simple and summery meal. Everyone in the family loved it!

Whole Wheat Chocolate Banana Muffins

When you have bananas like these laying around it is time to bake!

Salad with Raspberries and Cucumbers

This time of year we eat a lot of salads around here. And since we started receiving our weekly CSA, even more so. There are always a lot of salad greens in the box along with new and unfamiliar veggies. This is our first year taking part of a CSA (community-supported Agriculture, see note) and I can already tell that it is making us eat a lot more veggies than we normally do. And to know that it is so fresh and organically grown is very satisfying.

Lemon Yogurt Mousse with Blueberry Sauce

This is a delightful little dessert that I made over the Memorial day week end. It was really airy and light and the combination of slightly tart lemon and sweet blueberry sauce is a match made in heaven. My family really enjoyed the presentation in the individual ramekins and loved, loved the dessert. There were a lot of mmm's and yum's around the table.

Broiled sesame salmon with carrots and leeks

My oldest daughter has asked me many times to make salmon for dinner and I finally did. This is only the second fish recipe I have posted which shows that cooking and eating fish isn't something I naturally gravitate to. It is not that I don't like fish. I will often order fish at a nice restaurant, but preparing and cooking it at home is still rare.
