Our Meat Department has a case full of chops and this recipe for Grilled Lemon Rosemary Pork Chops is delicious!
Strawberries are one of the tell-tale signs of early summer. They're plentiful at the farmers market, and they're plentiful in the Produce Department. If you haven't tasted the flavor of strawberry with reduced balsamic vinegar, prepare for a party for your taste buds. This dish is delicious served over vanilla ice cream or yogurt.
Whether or not you celebrate the Jewish holiday, Passover, we dare you to only eat one of these sweet and salty treats!
Yesterday we brought you a "recipe" for Cider Syrup, which is just reduced apple cider. It becomes caramelly and tart and absolutely delicious. And, since you're probably up to your dreidels in holiday entertaining, we've brought you a fantastic recipe that uses that syrup. This simple-to-assemble appetizer uses Co-op made baguettes, arugula, manchego cheese and the cider syrup and the mix of flavors is out of this world.
