Even though my kids are not yet on summer break and even though I, as an adult, do not have a thing called a summer break, I’ve apparently helped myself to one. I’m sneaking off to the beach on weekdays (oops), reading novels, gorging myself on cherries and crisp-from-the-market cucumbers, playing midday tennis like a…

Thanks to How Sweet Eats for inspiring the combination of grilled feta and chimichurri. While I’m adding asparagus and red onion here, I truly think this would be excellent with anything from sugar snaps, snow peas, green beans, broccoli, sweet peas … yes, I basically cannot think of a vegetable that’s bad with chimichurri sauce,…
Note: Very key here is the size of your loaf pan because this will fill out every speck of it before it is done. Mine holds 6 liquid cups; it’s 8×4 inches on the bottom and 9×5 inches on the top. If yours is even slightly smaller or you’re nervous, go ahead and scoop out…
Note: This makes a lot! We end up eating it for at least two days. When we run out of chips, we end up scooping it onto small flour tortillas, closing the taco to dip to taco loop, you could say. You could make half the dish in a 2-quart baking dish or 8-inch round…

This pizza dough is adapted from a focaccia dough, and my favorite comes from Alexandra Stafford. I wrote about the focaccia in her first book in 2018. Guess what? Next Tuesday, her second cookbook, Pizza Night, comes out and it’s all about pizza — pizza for home cooks without special equipment. I’m wildly excited about…

Note: This is a small-sized meatloaf, and it works for my family of four. It doubles easily, either as two small loaves (baking time the same) or one larger, freeform loaf that will take between 60 and 70 minutes in the oven. Meatloaf 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped 1 garlic clove, smashed 1 slim…
