The farmer I purchase corn from at our farmer's market says the corn should keep growing until December, if there's no rain. I'm taking full advantage, and I've recently been transforming that corn into this ginger-y, peanut-y corn dish.

Okra and Corn Sauté with Tomatillo Salsa

Is it too late in the summer to be posting an okra recipe? I hope not because this is one of those simple, can't-mess-up, flexible summer meals that (I hope) will put a smile on your face as much as it does mine.

Summer Squash Skillet

It's so gratifying to cook with summer produce at its peak ripeness because very little need be done to make it sing. Summer squash (and corn, which is also in this skillet) are the perfect example. They’re sweet, crisp, and the happiest yellow hue ever.

Mexican Street Corn Bowls

Today's recipe turns Elote, a popular Mexican street food of grilled corn on the cob slathered in a lime and chili powder-infused creamy spread, into a one-bowl meal. A base of quinoa is topped with an Elote-style grilled corn salad, spiced tempeh crumbles, fresh tomato and avocado, cotija or feta, and a smoky lime dressing.
