The chives I planted last year have blossomed into huge bushes, so I’ve been using big handfuls at every opportunity. Then the aphids came. 

SO, I went to the farmer’s market at Union Square—my favorite place in New York—to get marigolds, rosemary, and sage, which Instagram told me will naturally rid my chives of pests. I left with two flats of plants, including dozens of herbs, sungolds, and rose tomatoes. If all goes according to plan, you’ll see my homegrown bounty on the menu in a few months. Cross your fingers with me!

coming soon to my garden

The warmer weather this week has me craving light meals packed with flavor that require minimal dishes. And that’s what I’m sharing with you! You can make these all on one night for a bigger group dinner, or whip one up on a weeknight when you just want to be outside (or, ahem, are busy planting your garden).

I hope you love these as much as I do! What recipes do you want to see on the menu next?

Here’s what’s on the menu this week! You can download a shopping list and recipe PDFs below.

  • One-Pan Fajita Lettuce Wraps

  • Avocado Salad

  • Baby Butter Salad with Crunchy Tortilla Strips
