Tired of steamed green beans? One taste of this salad and you’ll understand why folks who try it for the first time are making it again and again and again that very same week.

Buttermilk Ranch Dressing
Creamy, cool, herby, and tangy, this homemade ranch dressing is unspeakably better than the stuff in a bottle or (shudder) envelope. Slather, drizzle, dunk, and dip away.
Scallops with Grilled Sweet Corn Salad
Sweet sea scallops jumbled with even sweeter summer corn piled atop peppery greens. Simple. Virtuous. And satiating in a way most salads aspire to be but, sadly, are not.
Mexican-Style Street Corn
Does it get any better (or more like you’re vacationing south of the border) than grilled corn slathered with lime mayo, cheese, cilantro, and hot sauce? Nah.
