Roasted Strawberry, Brie and Chocolate Grilled Cheese

how sweet it is - http://www.howsweeteats.com/2012/04/roasted-strawberry-brie-chocolate-grilled-cheeeeeeeese

6 strawberries, quartered

1/2 teaspoon canola oil

pinch of salt

2 tablespoons butter

4 thick-cut slices of multigrain bread

2-3 ounces of brie cheese, sliced

1-2 ounces high-quality chocolate

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toss strawberries with oil and salt, then spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes.

Heat a large skillet or grilled over medium-low heat. Butter the sides of two slices of bread, place them on the skillet buttered-side down, then layer on a few slices of cheese, chocolate and strawberries. Top with a few more slices of cheese, then butter one side of the other bread slices, and place on top of the cheese. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese has started to melt, then gently flip the sandwich and cook until golden. Serve immediately!

Fava Bean Crostini
Illustrated Bites - https://illustratedbites.wordpress.com/2015/04/21/homegrown-book-excerpt-giveaway

Baguette, sliced on the bias
1/4 cup (60 ml) plus 1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 cup shelled fava beans (1 1/4 pounds / 570 g in shell)
4 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
Mint leaves for garnish (1 per toast)
Parmesan cheese, shaved (about 2 ounces/55 g)

Preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C). Arrange the baguette slices in a single layer on a baking sheet and drizzle them with the 1 to 2 tablespoons oil. Slice the clove of garlic lengthwise and rub the cut side all over the top of the bread slices. Put it aside. Toast the bread in the oven for 9 to 10 minutes, until golden.

Peel the fava beans from their outer shell. Put the fava beans, the remaining   cup (60 ml) oil, the lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, and salt in a food processor. Pulse until you have a mixture that is blended but still has a little texture (it shouldn’t be completely smooth like hummus). Put a healthy dollop of the fava mixture on each piece of toast. Top with some cheese and a mint leaf and serve.


Basic Bok Choy
Budget Bytes - http://www.budgetbytes.com/2010/04/basic-bok-choy

1 large head (2-3 lbs.) bok choy
2 Tbsp olive oil
½ tsp salt
1 clove garlic, minced
½ inch peeled, minced ginger
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp sesame seeds

Remove all of the leaves of the bok choy from the root base and clean well under running water. Cut each leave/stem into 2 inch chunks. If you don’t like the fibrous bottom of the stem, you can discard it. I cut off about one inch from the bottom of each stem.

In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium/high heat. When it is hot, saute the minced garlic and ginger for 1-2 minutes or until softened slightly.

Add all of the bok choy to the skillet along with ½ tsp of salt (this will help it wilt). Stir and saute until the bok choy has wilted and the thick pieces of stalk have become slightly transparent (about 5 minutes). Remove from the heat, adjust salt as needed, drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

2 zucchini diced
2 ounces low fat ricotta cheese, more if needed (can be replaced with Parmesan cheese)

• As you continue cooking the risotto, keep on adding the vegetable broth and keep on stirring. Don't let it dry up and stick to the bottom to the pan. 
• Meanwhile, on medium heat, in another saucepan with extra virgin olive oil, toast the zucchini until golden brown. Set aside. At the end of cooking the risotto, which should have a creamy consistency and the rice is al dente, turn off the fire then add the ricotta. The amount of the ricotta can be adjusted. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately while still piping hot with the toasted zucchini sprinkled on top and drizzle with fresh extra virgin olive oil.

Creamy Carrot and Leek Soup

A Spicy Perspective - http://www.aspicyperspective.com/2013/03/carrot-soup-recipe.html

2 pounds carrots

3 large leeks

3 garlic cloves, minced

4 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (1 tsp. dried)

1 teaspoon lemon zest

8 cups low-sodium vegetable stock (or chicken stock)

1 cup springy white wine, like Sauvignon Blanc

1/2 cup sour cream or creme fraiche

Salt and Pepper

• Trim the carrots and chop them into rough 1/2 inch chunks. Trim the root-end off the leeks and cut the white section into quarters. Slice across into small 1/2 inch pieces. (Save the greens for homemade stock.) Place the chopped leeks in a colander and rinse thoroughly--they are often sandy.
• Place a large pot over medium heat. Add the butter, carrots, leeks and garlic and saute for 10 minutes, stirring regularly.
• Then add the thyme, lemon zest, stock, wine, 1 tsp. salt, and pepper to taste. Cover and bring to a boil. Stir and cover again. Simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the soup looks murky and the carrots are soft.
• Ladle the soup into a high-powered blender. (You might have to do this in two batches.) Place the lid on the blender and open the top vent for steam. Lay a dish towel over the top of the blender and hold firmly as you turn the blender on. Pressure from blending hot liquids can blow the top off and burn you, so be careful--open vent, cover with towel, hold tight! Puree until smooth. Then add the sour cream to the blender and puree again.
• Pour both batches back into the sauce pot and stir to blend. Serve warm.

Brie Apple Arugula Quesadillas
my recipes - http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/brie-apple-arugula-quesadillas

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard $
2 teaspoons apple cider
3 (10-inch) flour tortillas $
6 ounces Brie cheese, rind removed and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices, divided $
1 Fuji apple, cored and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (about 1/2 pound), divided

3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided

Combine mustard and cider in a small bowl; stir well.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Spread each tortilla with about 1 1/2 teaspoons mustard mixture. Place 1 tortilla, mustard side up, in pan. Arrange one-third of cheese slices over half of tortilla; cook 1 minute or until cheese begins to melt. Arrange one-third of apple slices over cheese; top with 1 cup arugula.

Radish Leaf Pesto Recipe
Chocolate & Zucchini - http://chocolateandzucchini.com/recipes/dips-spreads/radish-leaf-pesto-recipe

2 large handfuls of good-looking radish leaves, stems removed
30 grams (1 ounce) hard cheese, such as pecorino or parmesan, grated or shaved using a vegetable peeler
30 grams (1 ounce) nuts, such as pistachios, almonds, or pinenuts (avoid walnuts, which make the end result too bitter in my opinion)
1 clove garlic, germ removed, cut in four
a short ribbon of lemon zest cut thinly from an organic lemon with a vegetable peeler (optional)
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more to get the consistency you like
salt

pepper

ground chili pepper

Put all the ingredients in a food processor or blender or mini-chopper, and process in short pulses until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl once or twice. This produces a thick pesto; add more oil and pulse again to get the consistency you prefer. (This can also be done with a mortar and pestle; it's great for your karma and your triceps.) Taste, adjust the seasoning, and pack into an airtight container -- such as, a repurposed glass jar.

Rhubarb Mojito

Not Without Salt - http://notwithoutsalt.com/rhubarb-mojito-a-giveaway

1 oz white rum
2 oz rhubarb syrup (recipe below)
5 (or so) mint leaves
1 Tablespoon lime juice
lime zest
nutmeg

In the bottom of a glass add a bit of nutmeg, lime zest, mint leaves and the lime juice. Using a muddler or the end of a wooden spoon muddle the ingredients. You want to really bruise and break up the mint leaves. Add the rum and syrup, give a light stir then top with ice. Garnish with mint and a thin slice of rhubarb.

Rhubarb Syrup
This is enough syrup to make plenty of cocktails. If alcohol isn’t for you a couple ounces of this syrup added to sparkling water and a squeeze of lime makes a delightful non-alcoholic version of this drink.

8 oz chopped rhubarb (2-3 small stalks)
1 cup sugar
2 cups water
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
¼ teaspoon nutmeg
½ vanilla bean (optional)

• Combine all the ingredients in a small pot. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 5-7 minutes. Let cool completely.

Chilled Asparagus Salad

food network - http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alexandra-guarnaschelli/chilled-asparagus-salad-recipe.html

6 quarts water
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
32 stalks small to medium-size green asparagus, washed and ends trimmed
2 lemons, juiced
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
2 tablespoons smooth Dijon mustard
4 tablespoons olive oil
Directions

• Bring the water to a boil in a large pot over medium heat. Add salt until it tastes like mild seawater then add the sugar.
• Prepare an ice bath by filling a bowl, large enough to hold the asparagus, with cold water. Add some ice cubes. Plunge the asparagus into the ice bath before cooking to help bring any limp stalks back to life. Remove from the ice bath, plunge them into the boiling water and allow them to cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the water, transferring them immediately to the same ice bath. Allow them to sit in the ice bath for a few minutes, swirling them gently in the water to assure they are all cooling quickly in the cold water. 
• Remove the asparagus and dry well. Place on a large plate or platter lined with a kitchen towel and refrigerate. 
• In a medium bowl, combine the lemon juice, white wine vinegar, honey and mustard. Stir to blend. Whisk in the olive oil in an even, steady stream. When all of the oil has been integrated, taste and adjust the seasoning, if needed.
• When ready to serve, remove the kitchen towel from the asparagus and simply toss the asparagus in the dressing to coat them completely. Arrange the stalks on plates and serve.

Asparagus-Spinach Pesto Pasta with Blackened Shrimp

Gimme Some Oven - http://www.gimmesomeoven.com/asparagus-spinach-pesto-pasta-with-blackened-shrimp

For the pasta:
1 lb. (16 oz.) dried pasta (I used DeLallo whole wheat)
1 lb. raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
2-3 Tbsp. blackening powder (use your favorite brand, or cajun seasoning)
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
asparagus-spinach pesto (see ingredients below)

• Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted water al dente according to package instructions.
• Meanwhile, add the shrimp to a small bowl and toss with the blackening powder until covered. Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add in the shrimp, and saute for 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until the shrimp are cooked through and pink and no longer translucent. Turn off the heat, and transfer shrimp to a separate plate and set aside.
• When the pasta is al dente, reserve 1/2 cup of the pasta water then drain the pasta. Return the pasta either to the stockpot where it was cooked, or to the saute pan (with the stove heat turned off). Add the pesto to the pasta, and toss until evenly coated, adding in a bit of the reserved pasta water if needed to thin the pasta. Then stir in the shrimp and pine nuts, and serve immediately sprinkled with some extra Parmesan cheese.

Asparagus-Spinach Pesto:
1 bunch asparagus spears (about 1 lb), ends trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
3 cups baby spinach leaves, loosely packed
4 cloves garlic, peeled
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for topping
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

• Fill a separate medium saucepan or stockpot with water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the asparagus spears and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the spears are bright green and barely tender. Remove the asparagus with a slotted spoon and transfer to a bowl filled with ice water to stop the cooking.
• Add the asparagus, spinach, garlic, Parmesan, pine nuts, lemon juice and salt to the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Process until combined. Then, with the motor running, drizzle in the olive oil until it is incorporated. As mentioned above, if the pesto seems too thick, add in a bit of pasta water to thin it out.
