We’re celebrating the official start of summer this week with recipes that bring to mind lazy-day flavors: sweet-tea-brined chicken, a no-cook club sandwich, and pork fajitas with tropical pineapple salsa. Get the week’s shopping list here (ingredients for suggested side dishes not included on the list).
-
RecipeSweet-Tea Brined Chicken
You could mistake this brine for a lemony iced tea and indeed, it imparts a similar subtle yet tart flavor. Continue the southern theme with grilled okra (or asparagus) and cornbread on the side. -
RecipeThai Steak Salad
When you’re in the mood for a light-feeling yet satisfying supper, try this bright, boldly flavored salad.

RecipeGrated Zucchini Omelet with Fresh Mozzarella
Shredded zucchini is mixed in with the eggs for one giant, extra-hearty omelet that gets cut in half to feed two. Marinara sauce complements the mozzarella and basil.
-
RecipeSmoked Salmon Club Sandwich
Move over, turkey club—this triple-decker sandwich stars a fresh combination of salty smoked salmon, creamy avocado, and spicy mayo. Toasted white sandwich bread is traditional for club sandwiches, but feel free to substitute any thinly sliced sandwich bread.

RecipePork Fajitas with Pan-Roasted Corn and Pineapple Salsa
Strips of spiced pork get quickly seared and then topped with a sweet and tangy salsa in this summery take on Tex-Mex.
