If there’s one recipe in my cookbook that I hear about people making and enjoying more than any other, I think it’s the Asparagus Tart. I made this variation on it recently using pesto and thought it was so simple and tasty. You can also substitute any other cheese, and almost any other vegetable if you like! If it’s a vegetable that takes a while to cook, however, you might want to cook it before baking. Cut into small squares and serve as an appetizer, or serve large chunks with a side salad for lunch.

Happy New Year!

In a couple weeks we are heading to Vermont for a family get-together, and I can’t wait to go blueberry picking! Usually it’s so hot that I can’t manage to bake a pie, so instead I love throwing the fresh berries in salads. Click on over to my Better Homes and Gardens post for the full recipe and more photos. Cheers to outdoor summer meals!
