I love all of the seasons, but summer is hard to beat.
I relish the asparagus, fresh greens and radishes until they make way for tomatoes, zucchini and cucumbers.

Prosciutto Pizza with Corn & Arugula
This grilled prosciutto and arugula pizza makes the perfect summer dinner.
Thawed frozen corn works in place of fresh, just pat it dry before sprinkling it on the pizza.

The sweet and tangy balsamic dressing pulls everything together, with fresh basil adding a refreshing pop of color.
Add capers for an even bigger flavor.
The grill turns the salmon flaky and moist while tenderizing the crispy pepper and onion pieces.
Round out the meal with brown rice or quinoa.
Baked tofu or shrimp can be used instead of the chicken.
We recommend serving this with brown rice or whole-wheat noodles.

Cod Fish Tacos
Let your oven do the work for these quick and simple cod fish tacos.
Broiling the cod allows the fish to stay moist and flake easily once finished.
Since the grill is already fired up, we throw on some bread for homemade croutons.
If your peppers are mild and you like heat, opt for spicy pico de gallo.
This easy vegetarian dinner recipe is sure to become a new family favorite.
