Strawberry Sangria

Image
This strawberry sangria made the Spanish way, with strawberries, dry rosé, and orange liqueur. Here’s how to build the pitcher and how long to chill it. If you love berries and you love sangria, then you must drop everything and make this now . Here’s my perfect strawberry sangria! Many American-style sangria recipes are just glorified fruit juice, but this one is Spanish style, full of nuance and character. Here the berries sing and the dry rosé notes peek through just enough. Serve it with a splash of sparkling water and a skewer of fruit, and it’s pretty perfect, I think! (In fact, it reminds me of my popular frozen rosé recipe !) Why You’ll Love This Strawberry Sangria It’s delicious. Sangría  is a classic Spanish wine punch. Usually American versions of the stuff are so sweet and fruity, I’d barely call them sangria! But this strawberry sangria tastes like actual strawberries, and it has a deliciously balanced flavo...

Stuffed Zucchini Boats

Stuffed zucchini boats are packed with a flavor-packed filling and melty cheese. Here’s how to bake them golden and tender (never soggy!). I’ll be honest: I’m not huge fan of zucchini outside of baked goods, but this stuffed zucchini boats recipe made me a convert! You just hollow out zucchini into shells, then stuff it with sausage, tomatoes, garlic, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, crispy breadcrumbs, and bake until golden brown. It never fails that someone I serve it to says wow ! These are packed with savory flavor and make a zucchini lover out of anyone. You can use either plant-based sausage or regular, depending on your diet. 5 Star Reader Reviews “This recipe for zucchini boats is the best I’ve ever had. 5 stars.” -Pamela “Wow! So delicious!

This peach crumble recipe is full of bold, juicy flavor! No one will be able to resist the sweet fruit and golden spiced topping. Here’s a summer dessert that’s easy to whip up and full of flavor: my favorite peach crumble recipe! Every peach season I try to make a few desserts to celebrate this incredible fruit and this one has become a family favorite. Here a layer of juicy, tender peaches seasoned with vanilla and lemon juice. It’s topped with a golden crumble layer spiced with cinnamon and ginger that’s got just the right amount of crispness and irregular crumble pieces. Top with a dollop of vanilla ice cream and it’s the best treat. 5 Star Reader Review “This recipe certainly deserves many stars! Easy to put together (I’ve already made three!), loved by everyone that has shared it. Especially loved by my husband.

This dessert has been a summer staple treat in our family for years and we can’t wait for it to become one in yours! This really is the best fresh peach pie you’ll ever have. At least, I think so! My mom’s Aunt created the recipe and won first prize at the county fair. Growing up, my family worshiped this dessert, a custardy, creamy pie with fresh peaches. We’d eat it to christen the first peaches of the season, and most memorably: it was the only food where we were allowed to lick the plates clean! Here, my mom shares our family’s best fresh peach pie recipe with a few thoughts on tradition and the stories behind it. People all over the world have made it and agree—it really is special! 5 Star Reader Review “This was DELICIOUS! Thank you so much for sharing your family’s recipe!...
