I had langoustines for the first time on a trip to the coast of Maine, and I couldn’t believe how delicate and sweet they were. We ate them with melted butter and lemon, right on the dock. Ever since, I’ve grilled them at home when I want something simple but stunning — they’re easier to make than t...

I started making strawberry lemonade during my “lemon water every day” phase — but let’s be honest, plain lemon water got old fast. I had extra berries one day, tossed them in the blender with lemon juice, and wow. That first sip was sunshine in a glass. Now I make a pitcher anytime we’re sitting ou...

This recipe is one of my warm-weather weeknight favorites — super quick, super fresh, and packed with flavor.

It all started one evening when I wanted something light after a long hot day, but didn’t want to be stuck in the kitchen. I had shrimp in the freezer, a lemon on the counter, and dinner wa...

This is one of those “clean out the fridge” recipes that turned into a total go-to.

I threw it together on a Monday when we had leftover chickpeas, half a cucumber, and random garden veggies. I added a quick lemon herb dressing, and suddenly it wasn’t just a throw-together salad — it was so good I ...

This salad is what I call “fridge magic” — the kind of recipe you can make once and enjoy all week.

It started as a way to use up leftover quinoa, but after one bite, I knew it had to be part of the regular rotation. The bright lemony dressing, crunchy veggies, and fresh herbs wake up your taste bu...

Every summer, this is the salad that steals the show. I started making it after a farmer’s market haul when I had way too many peaches and no clue what to do with them all. I threw a few on the grill out of curiosity… and let’s just say, now I plan for extras.

Grilling peaches brings out their natu...

There’s just something about berries and cream that feels like summer in a bowl. I remember the first time I made this — it was one of those golden hour evenings when the house finally cooled down and we needed something sweet but not heavy.

The vanilla ice cream is no-churn (yes, really!) and full...

This cake came from a craving for something sweet but not too heavy something that tasted like sunshine. I had ricotta in the fridge, fresh lemons on the counter, and a quiet morning ahead. I stirred it all together and ended up with this light, tender cake that’s now one of my favorite go-to desser...

This recipe came out of one of those “what can I make with what’s in the fridge?” nights. I had some overripe blackberries and a knob of fresh ginger leftover from a stir fry. I tossed them together with a little maple and oat topping and wow. It was bold, fruity, and had just the right kick of warm...

There’s something about this tea that just makes me breathe a little deeper. I first made it during a chaotic summer afternoon when I needed a break but didn’t want caffeine or another sugary drink.

Just a handful of dried lavender, a squeeze of lemon, and a drizzle of honey — and suddenly, I felt ...

Back when I was swapping out store-bought sweets for healthier options, I missed those old-fashioned ice cream sundaes. This Peach Melba version brought that magic back — but in a way that actually leaves me feeling good. It’s made with frozen bananas instead of ice cream, gently warmed peaches, and...

I love a dessert that looks like I spent hours on it... when really, I just layered a few simple things and let the fridge do the work. That’s what this Berry Icebox Cake is all about. I made it one Fourth of July, and it was gone before the burgers even hit the grill. Light, fruity, and creamy — it...
