What To Eat This Week

Start with a burrata, basil, and peach panzanella salad — a perfect dinner on its own. It’s satisfying and vibrant; if you want more protein, add grilled chicken or toss in some shredded rotisserie chicken.

For another easy evening, try guacamole turkey burgers. They’re juicy, flavorful, and a great way to enjoy summer avocados.

If you have leftover guacamole, turn it into black bean garden tostadas for a quick, vegetable-forward meal that’s full of texture and flavor.

Sausage, kale, and skillet gnocchi makes a speedy one-pan dinner that feels cozy without a lot of fuss.

Marinated tomato BLATs capture the essence of the season—ripe tomatoes, crisp lettuce, and smoky bacon for an ideal summer sandwich.

Finish the week with roasted buffalo cauliflower lettuce cups for a lighter, spicy option that’s great as a small meal or shared plate.

For lunches, prepare a big batch of cilantro-lime tortellini salad — it holds up well and makes for an easy, tasty midday meal. For breakfast, a zucchini pie with burst tomatoes is excellent warm or cold and can be made ahead to save time on busy mornings.
