When warm weather arrives, I start craving crisp, fresh salads, and this Shaved Broccoli Apple Salad is one I come back to again and again. Thinly shaved broccoli, crunchy apple, and a light tarragon dressing come together to create a salad that’s fresh, flavorful, and surprisingly satisfying.
Baked Apples with Granola
Baked Apples with Granola are super down-home easy and perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dessert. And they’re perfect in Autumn when the weather cools and you want to toss something cozy on the table.

It’s Labor Day weekend, and for a little longer, it’s still peach season. All the more reason to take advantage now, and you won’t find a better use for local peaches than my Sparkling Peach Sangria.
