I know what you're thinking. Soup? In the summer? Yes! I was super excited to see fresh sweet corn from the local farm make its way into my beloved Dorothy Lane Market this week. Fresh corn on the cob in the summer time conjures up memories of carefree summers on the lake and I can be brought ...

Vegetable Croquettes and Quinoa-Watermelon Salad with Citrus-Basil Vinaigrette
How's that for a mouthful of a title? Last night's dinner was just a vague idea in my mind that I kind of made up as I was going along. I started with a basic kid-friendly dish that I wanted to use--a slight variation of a vegetable croquette recipe from Super Foods for Babies and Children and ...
