This salad is everything I crave on hot, sticky days — crisp, cool, and so simple.

I first made it during a week where we were basically living off the grill and couldn’t handle turning on the oven. I sliced up some cukes, threw in dill from the garden, and made a quick lemony dressing… and we’ve b...

This salad is the first thing I make when strawberry season rolls around.

This salad is like a little bowl of green sunshine.

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...

This is one of those recipes that looks fancy, but takes less than 10 minutes to throw together — and always disappears first at summer gatherings.
