✨This week’s recipes✨

FEELIN' DANDY

Haven't tried dandelion greens? They're one of our favorite Grocery Bag additions. Peppery & bold, these greens are great in a salad and they also hold up to cooking with heat. Two ideas:

Make this Dandelion salad with bacon & leeks! I still have leeks from a few weeks ago, but if you don't, try shallots or onion.

Or sauté your dandelion greens with some garlic for a side worthy of a steakhouse-at-home night.

STUFF 'EM UP

Stuffed peppers are one of our favorite things to make with green bell peppers. Grab some rice, some ground beef or sausage, and cheese. I love stuffing just whatever we have! Easily veganized with potato & tofu, too.

Stuffed mushrooms are also a great app or snack, and these are vegetarian! Try grabbing one of our flavored cream cheese spreads to jazz it up even more.

ASIAN-INSPIRED EATS AT HOME

This black pepper tofu & asparagus makes it onto this inspo list a lot because you can sub any protein for the tofu and it still works! Top it with some everything spice or furikake (which we put on everything)!

This cucumber & carrot salad is inspired by Thai green papaya salad. You're surely going to love it!

SUMMERY SALADS

Craving a potato salad that's lighter and less mayo-ey? This lemon & dill potato salad is vinaigrette-based. I would even eat it a bit warm...

Mexican Street Corn salad. Enough said.

ROOM FOR DESSERT?

I first fell in love with cherry clafoutis after a summer in Paris where seemingly everyone has a cerisier in their backyard. Get a cherry pitter, you won't be disappointed to get help from a handy tool, and get to work! This dessert is worth it :-)

Warm bananas foster with vanilla ice cream? YES.
