Ingredients

For the Shrimp
For the Dressing

Instructions

Heat your grill (or skillet) on medium-high. Season the shrimp with oil, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt and pepper. Once the grill has heated, place the shrimp on the grill and cook for about 2 minutes a side until pink. 

Meanwhile, husk the corn. Next, rub the corn with olive oil and grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning every so often so it chars evenly. Season with salt and pepper (optional to season with the smoked paprika as well). Let cool, and then remove the kernels from the ears using a knife.

Cook the nectarines. Using a knife, cut the peaches in half and remove the pit. Drizzle the flesh with oil. Place flesh side down onto an oiled grill and cook the peaches for about 4-5 minutes until it gets grill marks. Remove carefully with a spatula and tongs.

Make the dressing: Whisk all the ingredients for the dressing in a bowl.

To assemble: In a large salad bowl, toss the arugula with the diced avocado, corn, and enough dressing to moisten. Top the salad with seared peaches, torn burrata pieces, and grilled shrimp.

Stuffed Zucchini with Greek Quinoa Salad and Herb Yogurt Sauce

Servings

4

Ingredients

For the Greek Yogurt Sauce
For the Greek Herb Sauce

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Cut the zucchini in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the seeds using a spoon. Put the halves flesh side up, as well as the innards, on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano and bake for 40-50 minutes until fork tender and beginning to char.

To a medium-sized pot add 1 cup of quinoa with 2 cups of liquid (I like chicken broth). Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer for 15 minutes (or until the liquid is absorbed). Meanwhile, chop the vegetables for the quinoa salad into ½-inch dices.

Make the herb sauce: combine all the ingredients (besides the oil) into a food processor and pulse. Stream in the olive oil until smooth. Taste for seasoning and adjust accordingly. 

In a large bowl combine the cooked quinoa, chopped vegetables, feta, and enough sauce to coat (reserving at least 2 tbsp). Set aside.

To make the yogurt sauce: combine 2-3 tbsp of the vinaigrette with 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt, feta, salt, and pepper. 

To prepare: Stuff the quinoa salad mix into each of the cooked zucchini halves. Dollop the yogurt sauce on top of each zucchini boat and enjoy!

Party Tip:

  • This yogurt dip is a great healthy dip to bring to a party or cookout. Serve with carrots, cucumber, peppers, and fresh pita.
  • Make the quinoa salad on its own to bring as a side to any party. Keeps in the fridge for 5+ days.

Kid-Friendly Tip:

After baking the zucchini, stuff them with marinara sauce and shredded mozzarella
