We’ve teamed up with Marzetti to share a few of our favorite ways to transform warm-weather dishes using their new line of tasty, preservative-free, Simply dressings and marinades. From creamy Avocado Green Goddess Dressing & Sauce to zingy Balsamic Vinaigrette Dressing & Marinade, they’ve got the basic building blocks for a quintessential summer meal.
Summertime at the farmers’ market is my mecca, as it is for many avid cooks. As I approach the market’s white tents, the fragrant scent of basil and mint washes over me like a warm breeze. Then, the rainbow of colorful produce comes into sight, and my heart swells with excitement, joy, and—I’ll admit it—complete and utter panic. What should I cook?! I immediately start planning menus in my head as I grab tomatoes, squash, lettuces, and all of the herbs. And then I shlep my market haul home, get it into my fridge, and promptly forget all the menu plans I had in mind when I was shopping.
