Pesto White Bean Burgers

by Megan Gordon

As a vegetarian during my late teens and twenties, I ate my fair share of veggie burgers. After college I started making my own, improving on the store-bought burgers I'd come to rely on by making my own zesty bean burger packed with herbs and subtle spices.

The recipe has come a long way since those days, and the latest version is this tender white bean number with double pesto—some goes in the burgers and some goes into a creamy sauce over top.

These veggie burgers cook up like a dream. They’re sure to be a winner for meat eaters and vegetarians alike.

 

How to Do a New England Clambake at Home

by Sally Vargas

When I was growing up in New Jersey, my dad enlisted us kids to dig up clams down at the shore. It was usually a multi-family affair. The grownups built a fire on the beach and filled a new aluminum garbage can with seawater. They set the can over the fire, and once the water was at a boil, the clams went in.

 

Lemon Icebox Pie

by Sally Vargas

Pie IS nostalgia. And this particular Lemon Icebox Pie represents my own personal stroll down memory lane, complete with sighs and happy feelings.

There's just something about a creamy, dense lemon filling topped with sour cream, settled on top of a graham cracker crust. It's one of those old-fashioned desserts that takes you back in time. It makes your cheeks pucker and your eyes roll with pleasure.

 

How to Blind Bake a Pie Crust

by Elise Bauer

Many sweet and savory pie recipes require pre-baking or “blind baking” a crust. No one really knows where the term got its name, but “blind” baking a crust means baking it without a filling.

Meal Plan July Week 5

Meal Plan July Week 5

This month, Summer Miller is back, sharing her meal plans for July. Summer is a mom, a full-time food writer, and also helps test the fabulous recipes we bring you every week at Simply Recipes.

And just like that we are finishing off the month of July! The official end of summer is still a couple of months way, but the back to school sales are everywhere reminding us the end is near. Soon fall sports and homework will replace swimsuits and sprinklers.

With that in mind I want to make the most of these final carefree days. My garden is packed with tomatoes, basil and cucumbers at this point in the season, and this week's meal plan puts them all to good use.

THIS WEEK: Vegetable Shakshuka, Chinese Chicken Salad, Cod with Tomatoes and More!

Drumroll, Please! Check out the Winner in American Pecans' #NotJustPie Recipe Contest

Drumroll, Please! Check out the Winner in American Pecans' #NotJustPie Recipe Contest

We love any excuse to try a new chicken recipe, so when our friends over at American Pecans hosted the #NotJustPie contest on Instagram and Twitter, asking fans to break pecans out of the pie shell and show off their best non-pie pecan recipes, we were thrilled to learn that the Pecan-Crusted Nashville Hot Chicken rose to the top.

Choosing a winner certainly wasn't easy, but ultimately the judges couldn't pass up Crystal Schlueter's, of @HomeOnTheIronRange, creative spin on a Southern classic!

As if Hot Chicken wasn't enough to get us to drop our to-do lists, Crystal serves it with creamy cornbread grits and a collard greens pesto. Intrigued? We don't blame you. There are many reasons to love pecans, The Original Supernut. They're versatile, nutritious and the only major tree nut indigenous to America — and this recipe lets you enjoy them in so many ways. We know we'll be dreaming about this super crispy chicken for weeks to come.

4 Great Add-Ins for Tuna Salad

Those of us who love tuna salad, LOVE tuna salad.

And while plain tuna salad with a bit of mayo and some salt and pepper is delicious, it can get a little bit same-old, same-old. Luckily it couldn't be simpler to add interest to that little can of fish, and the options for changing it up are pretty endless.
