Fresh Ideas for the Grill, Entertaining and Fast Weeknight Meals. PLUS: A Nation Transformed: How Finland Got Fit; a Consumer Guide to Fiber; and Our Expert's Take on the Controversial Headlines about Low-Fat Diets.
Featured in our June/July 2006 issue:
Lighten Up for Summer The summer growing season is the perfect time to enjoy meatless meals. Fresh produce is at its best and, of course, everything tastes better outdoors. Our Healthy in a Hurry column serves up 7 vegetarian meals ready in less than 40 minutes. Try the Mediterranean Portobello Burger, Garden-Fresh Stir-Fry with Seitan or Smoky Corn & Black Bean Pizza. (page 8)
Cherries: Ripe for the Picking We take full advantage of this favorite fruit's short season with recipes ranging from Cherry-Chipotle Barbecue Sauce for grilled chicken to a charming Sour Cherry-Fruit Slump to an elegant Vanilla-Kirsch Panna Cotta with Cherry Compote. (page 48)
Steak 6 Ways Put the slow cooker and roasting pans away and break out the grill and skillet to savor every bite of these creative recipes. Texas Toasts with Filet Mignon, Watercress & Herb Butter, Flank Steak Pinwheels and Grilled Buffalo Steak with Radicchio-Beet Skewers are super summertime fare. (page 54)
Sweet Summer Tarts made just for two; a scrumptious strawberry shortcake makeover, and a family-favorite blueberry crumble celebrate the fruits we wait all year for. (pages 22, 14, 24)
In the Aisles Our taste-testers tackle the crowded field of tomato salsas. Find out which jars earn the trip from shelf to cart. (page 75)
We suggest stellar “ABC” (Anything but Chardonnay) white wines for summer sipping, priced from $8 to $16, for great taste and value. (page 66)
