This Brazilian chicken salad is really easy to make. It's made with a cream and mustard dressing instead of mayo, which results in a lighter taste. Great for leftover chicken.

Berry and White Chocolate Blondies
These blondies are fluffier and softer than traditional blondies, but they taste fantastic! They're also very to easy to make, and only use one bowl. Use any kind of berries you wish!
Drupey Pie
I added fresh, ripe nectarines and apricots to this sour cherry pie. These fruits are drupe fruits meaning they are fleshy with a hard stone or seed in the middle. The pie was summery and delicious! I really like to use turbinado sugar--it's less processed and has a good flavor--but white sugar would be fine, too.
