It’s too hot to cook, and that’s why we are serving up this quick and fresh Marinated Greek Salad. It features fresh and vibrant produce, salty sharp feta, and a punch of brine-soaked olives. Each bite is swimming in a simple and bright vinaigrette with hints of citrus, biting balsamic, and silky olive oil. Enjoy this dish with pita or as a topping for hummus.
Enjoy this dish with a Greek Assyrtiko, or a light and zesty white wine of your choice.
This Strawberries & Cream Trifle is the decadent dessert of your summer dreams. Trifles are the perfect solution for dry day old cake (if your cake lasts that long!), or a stunning glow up for fresh cake. Our trifle layers feature a day old pound cake soaked in homemade vanilla simple syrup, a dynamic pudding with hints of citrus, cinnamon, and vanilla, fresh and juicy strawberries, and homemade whipped cream. Dish up a bowl, and be sure to get a bit of every layer! Or dive straight in with a spoon – I won’t judge.

Enjoy this dish with a dry or medium-dry German Riesling.

Celebrate this weekend with breakfast in bed this year, you deserve it! This dish is a blast to make because the eggy batter floats effortlessly in the oven to create an impossibly light and tender pancake. Top the fluffy dutch baby with a homemade zippy lemon curd and a pile of fresh blueberries.
Spring is in the air, and fresh produce is abundantly overflowing at the local Farmer’s Market. This is a time of year filled with renewed hope and joy as the winter thaws.

Enjoy sweet, tender leeks, fibrous asparagus, and tender peas swimming in a sea of silky, creamy risotto with a floral Pinot Grigio.
