Roasted Red & Golden Beets with Sunflower Seeds & Arugula
This Roasted Red & Golden Beets with Sunflower Seeds & Arugula has the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. The maple sherry vinaigrette is transcendent. The original recipe calls for fresh chervil, which I could not find. I plan on growing my own.

24 Hour Salad
There are many versions of this 24 Hour Salad. It's perfect to bring to a potluck. Up to 24 hours before you plan to serve the salad, layer a large bowl in the exact order given. I have learned 2 tricks from Martha Stewart over the years, one is how to hard boil an egg perfectly (bring eggs to a boil, boil for 1 minute, remove from heat and cover for exactly 13 minutes), the second thing is you pour the dressing in the bottom of a salad bowl, put the salad ingredients on top and toss right before serving. This is also a great way to bring a salad to a potluck.

BLT Salad
With the plethora of tomatoes from the garden, I have been making BLT salads for dinner. I make a dressing out of mayo and lemon juice, croutons, iceberg lettuce, bacon, tomatoes and you’ve got a great summer salad. Sometimes I put in an avocado, which makes it a BALT salad.
