DELICIOUS DINNERS

QUICK SUMMERY VEGGIE TART

Refrigerated ready-to-unroll piecrust
is the shortcut secret to this savory tart. Slathered with
basil cream cheese, it's filled with squash, peppers, and zucchini.

BEER BRAT

SKEWERS WITH SPICY SLAW

Bite-size bratwurst slices alternate
with veggies in this kebab version of the Sheboygan,
WI, classic, which is basted in a beer brown sugar sauce.

SOUTHWESTERN

TORTILLA PIZZAS

Layer budget-smart black beans,
cut-from-the-cob corn, and Cheddar
cheese to create these oven-roasted open
faced tacos. Top with red cabbage and
cilantro for color and a crispy crunch.

RUSTIC PASTA TOSS

WITH TUNA & TOMATOES

This pasta salad is loaded with
farm-stand squash and zucchini
and two pounds of tomatoes. Just
combine the raw veggies with canned
tuna and campanelle pasta for a beat
the-heat — and beat-the-clock — meal.

SLOW COOKER BARBECUE

TURKEY WITH CORN SALAD

These fall-apart-tender turkey
thighs get their spicy sweetness
from a dry rub of cayenne pepper
and paprika. After slow simmering,
spoon a vinegar-based barbecue sauce
over them and plate with a succotash
style side studded with carrots.

CAJUN COBB SALAD

Robustly rich andouille sausage,
speed-sautéed with red beans and
green peppers, gives this substantial
salad its Cajun kick. Drizzle on a mustard-mayo
dressing, whipped up fast with just a few pantry staples.

SMOKY CHICKEN

& PEPPER SALAD

Paprika-seasoned chicken
thighs transform a traditionally
vegetarian panzanella salad into a
family-satisfying supper. Toss together
with toasted cubes of French bread and garden
gathered tomatoes for a casual all-in-one dish.

SOY GLAZED

CHICKEN WITH RICE SALAD

For this Chinese-inspired take
on cookout chicken, leg quarters
are brushed with a simple glaze of
soy sauce and sugar while grilling. The
bird's crackly, burnished skin is the perfect
partner to rice salad with broccoli and thin-sliced radishes.

GRILLED PORK

CHOPS ‘N’ PEACHES

Seared on the grill, just-picked
juicy peaches gain a caramelized
char and become a mouthwatering
match for these succulent chops. Coating
the pork with a quickly made marinade of
garlic and cilantro results in supermoist meat.

GRILLED HAM STEAKS

WITH SWEET POTATO SALAD

Every forkful of this down-home
dinner delivers Southern flavor, from
the thick-cut ham steak to the sweet
potato salad dressed with a speedy apricot-curry sauce.
