Pesto

Homemade pesto is an amazing, yet simple luxury. Have a mortar & pestle? Roll up those sleeves and pound some love into this garlic-basil-olive oil sauciness. Have a food processor? Pulse, pulse and you are done. We use lemon to brighten the flavor and retain color. Make this vegan by substituting more nuts for the cheese. If you can’t find or afford pricy pine nuts, I love my pesto with walnuts, pistachios, almonds or even pecans.

Grilled Herb & Sun-Dried Tomato Sandwich

Italian flavors are squished into this grilled, almost-a-panini sandwich. If you have a panini maker, dust it off for this sandwich. Otherwise, follow our directions for a simple grilled cheese. Use a creamy herb spread or pesto.

Arugula Parmesan Salad

The bitter bite of arugula is paired with strips of parmesan and a drizzle of sweet vinegar. Use a thick, aged balsamic or sweeten up a thinner balsamic with a bit of honey, maple syrup or agave nectar.
