Spaghetti Salad
This spaghetti salad with fresh veggies and Italian dressing makes a great summer dish for sharing and will taste even better the next day — if it makes it overnight!
Shrimp Goat Cheese Watermelon Salad Stack
These shrimp and goat cheese watermelon salad stacks are a refreshing take on a traditional caprese salad. If you don't have a ring mold, cut into squares or triangles instead. The key is flat watermelon pieces, about 1/4-inch thick.
Easy Zucchini Mushroom Skillet
Try this easy zucchini mushroom skillet, full of colorful and tasty vegetables, and far from the same old side dish. Yellow bell pepper is beautiful with the zucchini in the dish, but red or orange bell peppers will do just as nicely. The mushrooms, garlic, and Italian seasoning add lots of flavor. Chops or chicken work well with this side, and with all the vegetables, either a simple green salad or a Caesar salad will be delicious.
