Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 red bell pepper, roasted and chopped
  • 1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
  • Parmesan cheese for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in minced garlic and roasted red pepper; cook for 2 more minutes.
  4. Add crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, sugar, and red pepper flakes; season with salt and pepper.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  6. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth (or transfer to a blender in batches).
  7. Stir in heavy cream and chopped basil; heat through but do not boil.

Notes

Tip: For a vegan version, replace heavy cream with coconut milk or cashew cream.

For an even creamier texture, blend the soup longer until completely smooth. You can substitute fresh basil with dried if necessary, but fresh will give the best flavor. If you prefer less heat, omit the red pepper flakes.

This bisque can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat gently on the stove for the best results. Serve with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh basil for garnish.

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed
  • 2 apples, cored and sliced
  • 3 cups mixed salad greens
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the cubed butternut squash with olive oil, chili powder, cinnamon, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until evenly coated.
  3. Spread the squash on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.
  4. While the squash is roasting, prepare the apples and salad greens in a large serving bowl.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, a pinch of chili powder, and a dash of salt to create the dressing.
  6. Once the squash is done, let it cool for a few minutes before adding it to the bowl with the greens and apples.
  7. Drizzle the spicy maple dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
  8. Sprinkle with walnuts and feta cheese before serving.

Notes

Tip: Feel free to use any variety of apples; tart apples like Granny Smith work well for a nice contrast to the sweetness of the squash.

For a vegetarian protein boost, consider adding chickpeas or quinoa to the salad. If you’re short on time, pre-cut butternut squash is available in many grocery stores to make prep easier.

Don’t hesitate to swap in your favorite nuts or seeds for added crunch. This salad can be stored in the fridge for up to three days; however, it’s best enjoyed fresh, as the apples may brown over time.

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. Add the cubed lamb to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
  3. Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  5. Thread the marinated lamb onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece for even cooking.
  6. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the lamb is nicely browned and cooked to your liking.
  7. While the lamb is grilling, prepare the tzatziki sauce by combining Greek yogurt, grated cucumber, minced garlic, dill, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl. Mix until well combined.

For the best flavor, marinate the lamb for at least 2 hours or overnight. If you’re short on time, even a 30-minute marinade will enhance the taste. Be sure to use fresh herbs when possible, as they make a significant difference in flavor.

You can substitute the lamb with chicken or beef if desired, but adjust the cooking time accordingly. To store leftovers, keep the skewers and tzatziki sauce in separate airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat the skewers gently in the oven or on the grill to maintain their juiciness before serving.
