Lemony Lentil Salad
Packed with protein and bursting with color, this nutrient-rich salad is more than a side dish. It's a vegetarian-friendly meal that'll become a staple on hot summer days and nights.
Spiced Orzo with Spinach
Orzo is a tiny soup pasta which looks similar to rice. It makes an ideal side dish for Mediterranean-style dishes.
Brown Sugared Carrots I love using carrots with tops, if available. I like to chop some of the tops and sprinkle them over the carrots like parsley. I also have been known to fry the tops and put them over these carrots for garnish and texture. This is my ultimate comfort food. Whenever I was home sick from school, I would make my mother drag out her arsenal of recipes to make me "better" and this is one of them.
Mexican Grilled Corn
Street vendors across Mexico sell this style of roasted or grilled corn-topped with mayonnaise, chili powder and Cotija cheese. You can serve the unadorned corn on a platter with small bowls of the sauce, cheese and lime on the side so everyone can make their own.
