Watermelon with Fleur de Sel1/12
The simplest and most summery dessert we know--complete with juice dribbling down your chin--just got even more spectacular.
Candied Carrots2/12
Sometimes carrots aren't quite as sweet as we'd like them to be. This kid-tested tactic takes care of that occasional oops on the part of Mother Nature.
Hibiscus Ice Pops3/12
Think the color of these crazy crimson-colored, Caribbean-inspired ice pops is flamboyant? Wait until you experience the taste.
Clementine Cake4/12
Looks like upside-down cake. Tastes like upside-down cake. Yet this sticky citrusy dessert couldn't be more right side up as far as we're concerned.
Grated Carrot Salad5/12
Yoohoo, you who's trying to eat more healthfully, start cramming carrots in your pieholes with this satisfying little number.
Carrot Soup with Leftover Chicken6/12
What's even more stunning about this soup than its vibrant hue and soulful taste is just how magnificently it serves as a vehicle for leftover roast chicken.
Roasted Cherry Tomatoes7/12
"Little explosions of flavor" is how the author describes these luscious little orbs of yellow, orange, or red goodness. We don't disagree. Neither will you.
Roasted Asparagus8/12
Think a recipe for roast asparagus isn't necessary? We thought so, too...until we tried this. Lovely spears time after time. Not at all mushy. And never tough.
Chicken Enchilada with Green Sauce9/12
"I may never use store-bought sauce again." That's what folks are saying about this super simple Tex-Mex standby with a simple salsa verde that's made from scratch. And so worth it.
Glow in the Dark Jello10/12
The spirits summoned for this ghostly glow-in-the-dark Jello hail from a bottle, not the supernatural. (It's just a gin and tonic under a black light. Who knew?!)
Figs in Port11/12
Simple. Seasonal. Sophisticated. Sassy. Sublime. All qualities we swoon to in a dessert. All found right here.
Blueberry Crumble12/12
Need to bring something to a backyard bash when all you want is mad crazy gratitude and an empty dish to take home? This blueberry crumble with a crumbly oatmeal cookie topping is your answer.
