Vegan Kale Pesto
Our Kale Pesto happens to be vegan – taking advantage of “cheesy” nutritional yeast. The body of the pesto if made up of the expected basil but with hearty kale and flat-leaf parsley as well, which lends balance to the other two bold greens. We do like pesto with pine nuts, which this uses, but we provide options for other nuts and seeds. Get the recipe.
Caprese Salad
This Italian salad’s original name is Insalata Caprese, which translates as “salad from Capri”. Caprese salad almost doesn’t need a recipe. It is really just an assembled salad of sliced tomatoes, fresh mozzarella and fresh basil. Get Caprese Salad recipe here.
Chicken Salad with Gruyere, Green Beans, Tomatoes & Basil
This is an unusual chicken salad, elegant enough for a light summer dinner main dish for guests. A very mustardy dressing coats cooked chicken, tender-crisp cooked green beans, juicy tomatoes and small batons of Gruyere cheese, showered with fresh basil. A study in color, flavor and texture contrast – that comes together in a flash. Get the recipe for Chicken Salad with Gruyere, Green Beans, Tomatoes & Basil.
