Four Ways to Savor the Week
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 – Grilled Chicken with Summer Peaches BBQ Sauce – 071125
Peaches are rolling into the markets and farm stands and I can’t resist passing on one of my favorite ways to use them!
Friday Four – Cherry Ricotta Cake – 070425
Enjoy the wonderful cherries rolling into the market with this delicious and easy cake!
Friday Four – Irrestible Peanut Ginger Sauce – 062725
Make this easy Peanut Ginger sauce and make friends😀 You’ll find SO many uses for it!
Friday Four – Happy Summer Watermelon Salad – 062025
Beets are a dividing food – you love them or hate them🙃 If you aren’t a lover, try substituting roasted carrots or roasted radishes for the beets! Just like the beets, the roasty toasty flavor of the carrots and radishes will enhance the creamy cheesy taste of the cheese and the walnuts.
