Summer Recipe: Chocolate & Hazelnut Praline Gelato
I was holed up in a strange apartment, my legs were swollen and I was quivering with pain. The sweltering heat pulsed from wall to floor to ceiling without mercy or regret. It wasn’t just hot. It was an inferno. I had been in Italy for mere hours and was already living out the trip from hell.If you’ve ever been to Florence in the summertime then it probably didn’t take much time to realize you made a very big mistake. Unfortunately, it’s usually too late.

Recipe: Vegan Coconut Almond Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
I fondly remember the days when Ben & Jerry’s made Coconut Almond Fudge ice cream by the pint — my parents would buy it and hide it towards the back of the freezer so we wouldn’t know it was there, but I’d always manage to tuck into it quietly and slowly so they wouldn’t notice. When Ben & Jerry’s discontinued it, I eventually discovered a natural foods brand made with coconut milk, but it just wasn’t quite as velvety and delicious.

That’s how the idea for this recipe was born.

If making frozen treats is on your summer bucket list and you’ve had a long list of excuses — no time, no ice cream maker, or no Popsicle molds — let me introduce you to granita. Granita is a frozen fruit dessert made from fresh fruit and water, blended and frozen until icy, flaked with a fork and frozen again. The result is a delightfully crunchy, melt-in-your-mouth fruit ice, perfect eating all on its own.

Yes, noodles!Faloodeh is one of the earliest known frozen desserts, dating to ca. 400 BC in Persia. This version is particularly associated with the city of Shiraz, while other variations exist across the Middle East, India, and Pakistan.

With a subtle savory twist from a very unexpected pantry ingredient, you can think of this lime version as an upgraded, more grown-up version of that favorite frozen dessert. What makes this flaky frozen treat sing isn’t the sweetness of the sugar, or the tangy lime juice, or even the fragrant citrus zest.

Corn chowder is a classic soup bursting with the sweetness of corn. It’s oh-so-creamy and body warming. When you add quick-cooking shrimp, corn chowder not only tastes great and feeds the soul, but it is also transformed into a complete meal in a single bowl. Usually, the thickness of a chowder comes from two sources: the starchy potatoes and the heavy cream.

Recipe: One-Pot 30-Minute Zoodles and Meatballs
The beauty of using spiralized veggies as a substitute for pasta is that they don’t need to be cooked separately. Just throw them right into the pan and in just a few minutes, they’re soft and ready to be twirled on a fork. Using spiralized zucchini and frozen, cooked meatballs means that you can make this twist on spaghetti and meatballs in just one pot and in less than 30 minutes. Versatility is the name of the game with this one-pot dinner.

Miracle Meal: Sheet Pan Gnocchi, Meatballs, and Giardiniera
This particular Miracle Meal is special to me because it’s inspired by my 6-year-old’s love of pickles (that, and my colleague Sheela’s crispy sheet pan gnocchi). That’s right — gnocchi, pickled vegetables, and frozen meatballs are cooked together on a single sheet pan, creating an unlikely yet delicious dinner that boasts all the comfort of pasta, richness from meatballs, and acidity and heat from pickled vegetables.

Recipe: 5-Ingredient Slow Cooker Honey-Garlic Meatballs
Add a slow cooker full of glossy, sweet-and-savory meatballs to your appetizer spread (or serve them up for dinner), and it’s all but guaranteed they’ll be gone in seconds. It’s just one of the reasons I keep meatballs stashed in the freezer at all times. Combined with a few pantry staples and plenty of pungent garlic, the whole thing cooks up with a full-flavored sticky sauce — and, best of all, the slow cooker does most of the work.
