I was all set to write about the abundant sunshine we've been enjoying and this bright and fresh recipe. But, it seems like Mother Nature is trying to foil my plan by soaking much of the East Coast with rain. Luckily, this dish will brighten up your next mealtime, rain or shine.
With the official comfort food months of fall and winter are long behind us, we've been enjoying less oven-bound casseroles and heavy pasta dishes in favor of grilled meats, market fresh vegetables and salads of spring and summer.
But, as the mercury rises, so increases my will to enjoy the outdoors as much as possible. I usually reserve Saturday mornings for running, but I've been getting the itch to pound the pavement more often and also earlier in the week. Matt has always raved about post-sunset summer runs as being the best, so I decided to give it a go last week. Gone are the scorching sun, humidity, and crowded city of the daytime. When I head out around 8:45, I'm welcomed by warm summer air, a light cool breeze, and empty sidewalks. Perfection!
