Dear Friends,

We've reached mid-August, and here in California it is HOT. Whenever we hit this point in the summer, I'm drawn to lighter, healthier fare and quick, easy recipes. Below you'll find an assortment of simple Mediterranean-style dishes for sweltering summer days (and nights!).

ROASTED PORTOBELLO PEPPER CAPS WITH GOAT CHEESE - Roasted portobello mushroom caps stuffed with a tasty Mediterranean mixture of vegetables and goat cheese. A light sprinkle of breadcrumbs (or nut crumbs!) and a drizzle of za'atar-infused olive oil add texture and additional flavor. It's a healthy, low carb meatless entree that satisfies. RECIPE HERE or PIN IT for later.

TZATZIKI - I simply love a cold, thick batch of tzatziki on a hot summer evening. Serve it with stuffed grape leaves or grilled fish for a flavorful summer meal. RECIPE HERE or PIN IT for later.

TUNA SALAD CAPRESE - In summer, when the tomatoes are ripe and fresh basil is widely available, this is one of my favorite lunches. Making this salad brings me right back to the island of Capri, where I first tasted this combination of six simple ingredients. The key here is using fresh, quality ingredients - the best you can find. It's the perfect healthy dish for those sticky days when all you want is a light meal. RECIPE HERE or PIN IT for later.

LEMON PASTA SALAD WITH TOMATOES CHICKPEAS AND FETA - This pasta salad is one of my favorite summer indulgences. I like to make a big batch and keep it in the refrigerator for when we need a quick, cold snack. It smells like a Mediterranean summer! RECIPE HERE or PIN IT for later.

LIMONANA - When the weather is very hot, I love to blend up a batch of limonana, a sweet-tart ice blended mint lemonade. It's so refreshing! We sit in the back yard, sip on our drinks, and dream of dining in the middle of ancient ruins on the shores of Caesarea. RECIPE HERE or PIN IT for later.
