Perfect Summer Fruit Salad

Perfect Summer Fruit Salad

This fruit salad is perfect for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the citrusy sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it.

Instant Chocolate Hard Shell

Instant Chocolate Hard Shell

A delicious chocolate candy shell topping for ice cream made in less than 5 minutes using just two ingredients. After trying recipe after recipe that turned out either rock hard or thick and gummy, I read the ingredient list on a bottle of the store-bought stuff and came up with this! Drizzle on top of your favorite ice cream.

Seafood Sausage

Seafood Sausage

Seafood sausage is a great, underrated way to take less than thrilling seafood, like some sleepy sole, and previously frozen salmon, and make something that seems far more special. The flavor is lovely, and the texture is similar to a boudin blanc, or white hot dog, if you prefer. You can brown and serve these right after they're done boiling, but I like to make them ahead of time.

Make-Ahead Moroccan Lamb Stew

Make-Ahead Moroccan Lamb Stew

This Moroccan-style stew with ground lamb was inspired by the wonderful spices and flavors used in Moroccan cuisine. We like to double the recipe and freeze one portion for later. We typically serve the stew with warm bread and a salad.

This hearty Irish lamb shank stew is perfect if you feel like having something a little different on St. Patrick's Day.
