Looking for ways to cook up a meal with your fresh produce? Look no further than this Grilled Caesar Salad with Chickpea Croutons (trust us on this one)! Swipe through the carousel or read on for the recipe: ⁠

For the Salad ⁠
1 can chickpeas, drained (about 1.5 cups cooked) ⁠
1 tablespoon olive oil ⁠
1 teaspoon chili powder ⁠
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided in half ⁠
1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided in half ⁠
2 whole Romaine lettuce hearts ⁠
1 tablespoon olive oil ⁠
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese ⁠
1-2 tablespoons Caesar Dressing ⁠

For the Caesar dressing (Makes 1 cup)⁠
3 cloves garlic ⁠
1 1/2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce⁠
4 anchovies ⁠
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard ⁠
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice ⁠
2/3 cup olive oil ⁠
1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper, divided ⁠

Make dressing by blending together the garlic, Worcestershire sauce, anchovies, Dijon mustard, and lemon juice. With the blender still running, add olive oil, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate until needed. ⁠

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place chickpeas on a towel and pat dry removing as much liquid as possible. Toss chickpeas with olive oil, chili powder, and 1/8 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and spread chickpeas in a single layer on the pan. Bake for 30-45 minutes until crispy. Shake the pan every 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool. (Pro tip: leftover chickpeas make a great snack, so consider doubling the recipe!) Slice off the root tip of the lettuce, leaving all leaves attached then slice the heart in half lengthwise. Rub olive oil on the cut side and season with remaining salt and pepper. Grill cut side down for 1-2 minutes or until leaves just begin to char. ⁠

Place romaine hearts on the plate, cut side up, drizzle with the Caesar dressing, and top with Parmesan cheese and crispy chickpeas. ⁠

Let’s cook the garden (metaphorically)! Let plants be the star with this plant-forward recipe for a Smoky Grilled Cauliflower Steak that embraces peak season flavors and techniques that will add unique flavors to your plate! Swipe through the carousel and read on below for the recipe. ⁠

1 large head of cauliflower ⁠
2 tablespoons olive oil ⁠
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika ⁠
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice ⁠
1/2 teaspoon salt ⁠
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped ⁠

Cut the head of cauliflower in half slicing through the center. Take each half and slice again to create a 1-inch steak. Reserve any florets from each side for another use. Lay each piece flat on a sheet pan. ⁠

Mix together olive oil, smoked paprika, lemon juice, and salt then brush one side of the cauliflower steaks. Place the seasoned side down on the hot grill and brush the top side with the remaining olive oil mixture. Cover the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes until the bottom is charred. Flip the steak, recover, and cook an additional 5-6 minutes until the cauliflower is tender. ⁠

Remove from the grill and sprinkle with parsley for serving. While these steaks can stand alone, for an extra flavor punch, pair with pumpkin-seed pesto, avocado salsa, chipotle-lemon Greek yogurt, or chimichurri. ⁠

In celebration of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we are thrilled to partner with Amy Kimoto-Kahn, a fourth-generation Japanese American, blogger at Easy Peasy Japanesey, and author of the cookbooks "Simply Ramen" and "The Asian Hot Pot Cookbook." Swipe through the carousel for more about her cookbooks or read on below. ⁠

In "Simply Ramen: A Complete Course in Preparing Ramen Meals at Home," author Amy Kimoto-Kahn shows you how to put together a bowl of piping hot ramen in myriad ways with a choice of four soup bases, ramen noodles (homemade or store-bought), and traditional and non-traditional ingredients. ⁠

In "The Asian Hot Pot Cookbook: Family-Friendly One Pot Meals," Kimoto-Kahn showcases hot pots, which have long been a cornerstone of home-cooking — a one-pot meal, shared at the table, with family and friends helping themselves from the communal pot. The key to a successful hot pot? The base broth. ⁠

Join us this month at the link below as we learn more about Amy's culinary journey, share her recipes, and her dedication to making Japanese cuisine accessible to home cooks.
