Butter-Roasted Halibut with Asparagus and Olives
Vegetables that are best served crisp-tender are a great accompaniment to a slow-roasted fish because they will come out perfectly cooked at the same time: about 30 minutes.

Slippery When Wet
This fragrant and refreshing strawberry-gin drink has a secret ingredient: a dollop of unsweetened Greek yogurt, which gives the cocktail a tangy flavor and subtly creamy texture. Skip the mimosas and bloody marys at brunch and serve this instead.

Trout Toast with Soft Scrambled Eggs
Master restaurant-style egg toasts with this salty, smoky, creamy combo. Crème fraîche is the secret ingredient for a custardy scramble, and high-quality smoked fish and good bread are worth the splurge—they make all the difference here.

Grilled Greens and Cheese on Toast
Pile charred Halloumi cheese, kale, and cherry tomatoes onto grilled garlic toast for a light and satisfying casual grilled lunch or dinner, best enjoyed outdoors.

Shrimp and Basil Stir-Fry
Serve this quick dish as a starter at a dinner party, or make it for dinner and spoon over rice.

Crispy Pita With Chickpeas and Yogurt (Fattet Hummus)
Typically eaten for breakfast in Lebanon, this creamy, crunchy dish also pairs well with savory dishes come dinnertime.

Cold Toddy
Take down the temperature of a classic hot toddy for a more refreshing approach to the seasonal mix of tea, citrus, spices, and rye whiskey.

Spiced Lamb Wraps with Ramp Raita
The lamb for these wraps—bursting with flavorful spices and herbs—is cooked in the oven, but it would also be amazing cooked on a grill.

All Green Salad With Citrus Vinaigrette
This all-green salad is studded with creamy avocado, crunchy cucumbers, and asparagus, and punctuated by tons of fresh dill and basil. The varied shades of green look like spring in a bowl.

Chicken with Lemon and Spicy Spring Onions
Roasting two chickens on one baking sheet is an effortless but strategic way to cook for a crowd (or a genius way to make extra for the week ahead). As the fat renders, it bastes the vegetables for a built-in side dish.
