Cherry Tomato-Basil Pesto Tart
Summer's back already. And it's in my mouth. In every bite of a tart that's the easiest best-tasting thing I've tasted in months. Sounds simple because it is. But it's so much more flavorful, interesting and satisfying than you'd expect.

A deeply delicious salsa that elevates fish, chicken, vegetable and egg dishes to almost authentic Mexican masterpieces. About $3 and 20 minutes for 20 ounces of greatness.
Flash-Bake Those Leaves: Radicchio Pizza
A big salad posing as a pizza. A huge mound of exceptionally fresh, dark red, flash-baked radicchio on a hot, fresh pizza crust. Delicious. Another example of pizza crust as the perfect platform for everything fresh and tasty. Dinner for two for $2.
