Meal Prep

Leftover crème fraîche makes a delicious accompaniment to fruit desserts.

A tasty herb oil is a nice alternative to a heavy or complicated sauce. It’s quick and easy to make, and it looks and tastes great. Herb oil can be refrigerated up to 2 days before using; bring to room temperature before serving.

This verdant puree can be tossed with pasta or drizzled over boiled potatoes just like pesto. It can be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the refrigerator.

The dough is easiest to handle when it’s well chilled—keep it in the refrigerator until right before it hits the grill. Depending on the size of your grill, you can make more than one pizza at a time. (Instead of making six pizzas, another option is to make four large ones; cut the dough into quarters before rolling it out.) If you don’t own a grill, you can make the pizzas on a grill pan.

You’ll need to make these onions at least 1 week in advance.

Use half of this recipe in the burgers and half for the grilled tomato sauce.

This marinade may be made in advance and kept in the refrigerator for 2 days.

Let dressing sit overnight to meld flavors.
