Refreshing Summer Salad

Kick off this summer with a refreshing salad bursting with flavors. The key to a great salad is using fresh, seasonal ingredients.

Start by tossing together mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and a handful of fresh herbs such as basil and mint. These ingredients bring a vibrant and cooling element to the salad.

To add a bit of sweetness, grill some juicy peaches and add them to the mix. The combination of the sweet peaches and the tangy dressing will tantalize your taste buds.

For the dressing, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, honey, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients.

Finish with a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese and some toasted almonds for a nice crunch. Enjoy this refreshing salad on a hot summer day!

Savory Stuffed Bell Peppers

Start by roasting the bell peppers until they are tender. While the peppers are roasting, prepare the filling. Sauté onions, garlic, and a mix of your favorite vegetables such as zucchini, mushrooms, and corn.

Once the vegetables are cooked, stir in cooked quinoa or rice for some added texture. Season the mixture with herbs and spices like thyme, oregano, and paprika. Don't forget to add a generous amount of grated cheese for that gooey goodness.

Carefully spoon the filling into the roasted bell peppers and top with more cheese. Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
