summer recipe

With summer coming to an end, everything I do is oriented toward taking advantage of the summer season, hence this delicious, fresh end-of-summer salad.

Looking for the perfect healthy summer dish? Try this spaghetti squash recipe for a lighter alternative to your favorite pasta.

The whole point of eating a salad is to be able to taste every ingredient as it is, i.e. in its most natural, unaltered state. Indeed, that's only possible when you keep your condiments or dressing to a bare minimum. Most incarnations of watermelon salads make use of a light vinaigrette dressing, which after you try our version, will seem completely redundant.

This isn't an easy recipe. This will take you hours and you'll learn a few new techniques. But we at the Clog think that summer is the time for experimenting in the kitchen and utilizing seasonal ingredients for more complicated recipes because we have the time. Leave the pot noodle and pasta with red sauce for the school year and embark on a culinary journey that'll leave a crunch and sugary, bright sweetness in your mouth.

We've all been there — standing in line at Chipotle. We have succumbed to paying a couple more dollars for a small scoop of some delicious guacamole. Luckily, we don't have to anymore. Not only is guac significantly cheaper to make on your own, it's also surprisingly easy and fun to whip up. You can step up your game even further by adding surprises like corn and black bean, like we do in this recipe that serves three. Just be sure to share with your friends.
