Hard to say if it's better for breakfast or dessert. Depends if you want ice cream with it. Very intense lemon flavor makes it vibrant. Seasonal fresh pears give it a mellow sweetness. Olive oil keeps it moist, light and healthy. Ten minutes to prepare.

So satisfying and so easy. And cheap. The weather's cooling down and farmers everywhere are pulling their onions. Should be your first soup of the season. Luscious, deep and sweet onion flavor. NOT a calorie bomb.

Pickled Cucumber & Yogurt Soup. A very aromatic, very summery, very light but yogurt-rich soup. Five minutes of preparation. A great Way to use the late summer cucumbers. Like the two-pounder I just grew.

Dessert for a lazy, late summer cookout. A no-labor day dessert. As satisfying as a pie right out of the oven. Without making a pie. Hot. Sweet. Just slightly smoky. A little crumbly. Like a great pie once it's in your mouth. Where it counts.

No grill. No fireplace. You do it right on your stovetop. No pan. No pot. Just direct heat. They're succulent. They're sweet from heat. They're smoky from the direct heat. Now all you need's a fork.

When your CSA farmer picks all the peppers before the hurricane blows them into another county, you gotta do your part. You can pickle them, roast them, freeze them or make a Pepper Harvest Pizza.
