Chopped Roasted Beet and Blue Cheese Salad
I love beets, especially picked ones. I could eat them for breakfast! This Chopped Roasted Beet and Blue Cheese Salad combines the earthiness of the beets with a tangy vinaigrette, fresh dill (another favorite!) and chopped green onions. I'm sure not everyone will eat this at my dinner table, but certainly will!

Corn off the Cob with Lemon
Normally, I make corn with butter, lime juice and cayenne, which is my favorite way. Someone seems to have used up all the limes making various cocktails! So because I had a bowl of lemons, I created a new version - Corn off the Cob with Lemon. The sweetness of the corn is perfect with the tartness of the lemon.
