Herb Deviled EggsI never met a deviled egg I didn’t like. Seriously, I love all versions of this classic summer potluck staple! This particular version sports tangy dill pickles, Dijon mustard and white wine vinegar, a punch of flavor from fresh herbs, and a bit of heat from cayenne pepper.Feel free to add more dill and/or chives if you want more… |

Cedar-Planked Salmon with Red Pepper & Caper SauceSalmon — famous in the Pacific Northwest — is my favorite type of fish, and cooking it on a cedar plank is my favorite method of cooking it. The plank not only keeps the fish moist because it protects it from the direct heat of the grill, but it infuses the salmon with a wonderful smoky flavor. The tangy Spanish-inspired roasted red… |

Salsa Verde Eggs BenedictMy mom loves Eggs Benedict so next time I see her, I’ll be making her this Mexi-inspired version of it! In this recipe, salsa verde (a green tomatillo-based salsa) replaces the traditional hollandaise sauce, and the black olives and fresh cilantro add another layer of fresh flavor.I suggest warming the Canadian bacon before adding it… |
