This chunky potato salad is a great way to enjoy tiny new potatoes and garden beans. Be sure to keep it chilled en route to the picnic.
My boyfriend made this meal for me on one of our first dinner dates this past summer. He was worried I wouldn't like it but it turned out to be my favourite meal and I crave it all the time now. We freeze most of it and find it heats up very well and gets even better over time. It also goes extremely well with home made guacamole.

This sweet, creamy spread is a tasty alternative to a log of plain goat cheese on a cheese plate. If you have any left over (doubtful!), it makes an excellent sandwich spread. Serve with sliced Granny Smith apples, crackers or vegetable sticks.
Serve with Long-Grain Rice and Asian Brussels Sprouts Toss (see recipes below).
This tangy citrus ice makes enough for about six dozen oysters, so it's perfect for parties. Or serve some over oysters and use leftovers as a lovely intermezzo sorbet. Serve a heaping 1 tsp (5 mL) granita per oyster.
