ChefMom's Recipe Box: Holiday and Seasonal: Summer

Here are some recipes for you:

  • Betsy's Colorful Pasta Salad
    This one is an easy summer classic and very versatile. The following recipe is my favorite, but you can certainly experiment with the combination of vegetables, using tomatoes, olives, cucumbers, green onion, artichoke hearts or whatever else strikes your fancy, as well as substituting other kinds of pasta, cheese or salad dressings.

  • Betsy's Old-Fashioned Baked Beans
    This recipe is a family favorite, handed down by my grandmother. It’s the kind of dish that disappears completely at potluck picnics, no matter how many other people also brought baked beans. To be completely honest, I have never made this dish according to any recipe - it lends itself to guess and dump, and despite the inevitable variation, has never turned out badly yet. The following amounts are pretty close to what I normally use. Fix this for your next BBQ and mark my words, everyone will rave!

  • Chicken, Spinach, and Raspberry Salad
    A favorite dish for the end of a busy day, this salad is summer comfort food for me. Cubed roast or poached chicken can be used in this recipe, but I always use grilled chicken. On a cool day I marinate dozens of boneless skinless chicken breasts in raspberry vinaigrette (recipe below) and then grill them while it is cool outside until they are cooked through. I then cool them slightly, slice them into thin strips and freeze them. Whenever I want cooked chicken with tons of flavor I just grab them from the freezer and thaw. Store-bought raspberry vinaigrette can be used in this recipe, or you can use the recipe for Wen's Raspberry Vinaigrette.
