BLT, for Two!
Two of my punks are already back in school, leaving the Pickle at home with me to enjoy one last week of summer. We knew we needed some sustenance before we struck out on a quest for the perfect pair of jeggings (a middle-schooler’s must have, I’ve been told), so we rummaged through the fridge, and this is what we concocted: a BLT for Two salad! Hot diggety dog, is it good! Beware the bacon croutons, however – they’re addictive — we almost ate the whole batch before the salad was ready to serve.

Falafel In Pita & Tomato Cucumber Salad
I was feeling quite adventuresome and tried a new recipe last night – new for me anyway. Since NTYB is off clobbering a zillion balls at tennis camp, I decided to make a meal that he would never in a million years ingest or enjoy: falafel, my friends. An irresistible Israeli concoction of smashed chickpeas, onions and cilantro – served in warm pita, with a creamy yogurt sauce. NTYB repellant for sure.

The Way to a Father’s Heart…
……is through fiscal responsibility. This week’s sale ad features ribeye steaks, crab legs, and jumbo prawns. Delightful. Delicious. Delovely, for sure. But even at their sale price, they’re some pricey menu items. The father of my children would not appreciate a meal of such extravagance at this particular moment in time, I can guarantee you that right now……oh yes, I certainly can.

Compose Yourself
I’ve been about the farthest thing from composed today. In fact, I’ve been…I’ve been…well, I’ve been (and remain) a blithering ninny. Going about my day with tissue wad in hand and sobbing at the drop of a hat, I’ve bent the ear of any friend (or stranger) who has regrettably (for them) hazarded a guess at the reason for my bloodshot eyes and tearstained cheeks.

Blackened Salmon Salad
I’m taking a walk on the wild side today by changing up one of my favorite meals of all time: the blackened steak salad. Of course I love Sendik’s more’n my luggage, but I just could not stomach $17.99 per pound for fillet today. I know it’s knock-your-flip-flops-off fantastic, but I’m in the process of signing the punks up for every summer activity under the sun this week (read: writing checks left and right), and the funds are not allowing for fillet.

Romaine Salad with Apple, Red Onion, & Cider Vinaigrette
I was at school last Wednesday morning and ran into Patrick and Lisa Balistreri. We got to talking about all things groceries, and they were both raving about the Jazz apples that are on sale this week. “Blog about apples,” he said. “We’ve got TONS of Jazz apples this week, and they’re really good!”

Cobb Salad with Herbs & Sherry Vinaigrette
I’m an absolute fool for a good Cobb Salad, which is what I decided to make tonight. Light and fresh, they’re the perfect warm weather dinner. I adore them so much in fact, that I ate a Cobb Salad from the North Shore Bistro every single week for the full nine months that I was pregnant with my third kiddo.

Grilled Chicken Skewers
I want to tell you about this ‘chipper chocken’ recipe that I made tonight. It’s my favorite dish to make out of plain old, boring ‘chocken’ breasts. The refreshing Greek flavors of oregano and fresh mint really liven up these pretty skewers.

Recipes From Crisse
I just love our Sendik’s customers. They are such a source of inspiration for demo’s and recipes. Crisse Merkel of Germantown passed along these recipes. I’ve made all three and they are great! Perfect for summer grilling and entertaining. Thanks Crisse!
