Does it count as a salad if there’s no lettuce? I think so. Combine some day old bread with fresh summer veggies, and you’ve got dinner!
Ingredients

  • olive oil
  • pinch salt
  • pinch pepper
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 1/2 C summer squash, grated
  • 1 carrot (1 C), grated
  • 1 C green beans, cut into 1″ pieces
  • 2 T red onion (opt.), chopped
  • 1/2 C cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 C tomato, chopped
  • 1 C parmesan cheese, grated
  • Dressing: 1/2 to 1 T fresh tarragon, chopped
  • 1 T fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/4 t chives, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, diced or minced
  • salt (to taste)
  • pepper (to taste)
  • 2 T balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 C olive oil (or more – to taste)
Instructions
  1. Arrange bread on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake at 350F for 10-15 minutes, or until slightly toasty. Rub each slice with the clove of garlic. Cut into chunks.

Ingredients
  • 6-10 large potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 1 t salt
  • 3 C green beans, cut into 1-2″ pieces
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 1 jalapeño, halved (seeds and ribs removed if desired – use gloves or scrape out with a knife)
  • Dressing: 1 T fresh chives, chopped
  • pinch cayenne
  • pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 smoked paprika
  • 1/2 t sweet paprika
  • salt, to taste

  • 1/4 C mayo
  • 3/4 C Greek yogurt

  1. Cut the top off a head of garlic. Drizzle with olive oil and wrap with tinfoil. Bake at 350F for 45 minutes. Let cool. Squeeze pulp from skin. Mash.
  2. Toss potatoes with 3/4 t salt and 1 1/2 T olive oil. On two baking sheets, roast at 350F for 45-60 minutes, or until potatoes are crispy outside and tender inside (different types of potatoes may vary the amount of cooking time needed). Rotate the baking sheets halfway through to ensure that both pans are ready around the same time.
  3. Place jalapeño cut side down on a baking sheet. Toss beans with remaining olive oil and 1/4 t salt and sprinkle around jalapeño. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Let beans, potatoes, and jalapeños cool completely in the fridge. Chop jalapeño into small pieces.
  5. Whisk dressing ingredients together.
  6. Toss potatoes, beans, jalapeño, and dressing together.
