How to up your Corn on the Cob game? Instead of plain ole butter, how about using compound butters? Here are three great options: Chili Lime Butter, Garlic Herb Butter and Parmesean Ranch. All taste fantastic on corn, but definitely not limited to that. Keep some in the fridge and use them all summer.

I love this recipe. Not just because I love scallops (I definitely do) and not just because it is very pretty and colorful, but also because it is really easy to make and really versatile. You can make it with other veg thrown in (I’ve added parsnips and broccoli at various times) and the protein can be swapped out too — instead of scallops, you can totally do shrimp or chicken or turkey. I’ve never tried pork or beef, but I think they might work as well. Serve with rice; this is on the table in under 30 minutes!
I don’t actually know that I have ever had potato salad in Scandinavia before. I don’t think that I have, so I can’t really tell you if this is authentic or not, but the combination of sour cream, light vinegar and dill made me think of Scandinavia, so I went with the theme. It’s definitely not like my other potato salads, which lean toward the Southern German or French styles. Nevertheless, this was very yummy and light, not heavy on the mayo or greasy. And yes, even in a pandemic, you can splurge and have smoked salmon for lunch. On a Wednesday. Just because.
Second Monday in a row that I am splurging on breakfast: French Toast last week and the most technicolor breakfast that I have had in a long time with these Deconstructed Breakfast Burritos this week. I wanted to get in another “Spring Veggie” dish for the Bake/Cook-a-long (you have until midnight today, if you are playing along!), so I started with spinach pancakes, which are actually really really yummy, but are almost too vibrant! Fill it on up with other breakfast ingredients: rice, beans, tomatoes, avocado, spring onion and more spinach … and a fried egg for good measure. I had intended to roll the whole thing up or fold to a square, but I only managed to fold it like an omelette. A great breakfast and a technicolor feast for the eyes!
