The Friday Four
The Friday Four is Nancy’s signature weekly note—delivered straight to your inbox. Just four things, thoughtfully chosen: a vibrant, healthy recipe, a smart kitchen tip, a creative spark, and a wine find worth sipping.
Friday Four – Crispy Almond Crab Cakes with Lemon Caper Remoulade – 082120
Crispy Almonds and rich crabmeat combine in this easy awesome crab cake!
Friday Four – Not Your Average Greek Inspired Salad – 081420
A yummy summer salad with a secret ingredient – that makes it yummy!
Friday Four – Summer Peach and Berry Crumble – 080720
Crisps and crumbles are a simple way to celebrate the best of the season without the work, time or baking talent required for a pie.

Happy chilled soup for summer! I use roasted red peppers for this riff on gazpacho where they create another layer of flavor to the rich-ripe goodness of the soup.
