Summer Tomato-Peach Chutney
This gorgeous, orange-hued chutney is ideal with grilled meats or inside grilled cheese sandwiches. If you can, use meatier tomatoes like Romas or little Juliets. Heirloom slicers will taste good, but they bring a lot of water to the equation that will have to be cooked out.
Spicy Southwest Chopped Salad with Salsa Verde Recipe
This spicy Southwest chopped salad with salsa verde recipe makes the best summer chopped salad I have ever made! You can adjust the amount of spice depending on your preference by adding more or less jalapeño and Cajun seasoning. The salsa verde makes a big enough batch to have more for dipping chips later. It is a great low-fat, all-in-one meal. This dish can also be topped with crushed tortilla chips if desired.
