Fruit-salad/10 recipes

A fresh and light dessert! I often serve this after a big dinner or as a alternativ with my cakes at our birthday pary. It is popular!

This delicious BLT potato salad has all the right flavour and texture. Nobody could resist this tasty salad.

It's the season of Swiss chard and kale. We got lots of these fresh leafy greens from our CSA farm, and I was trying to come out an idea to use them up, surfing the internet, found a recipe in New York Times, it's a chard and feta phyllo tart. Definitely got the inspiration, I used both chard and kale, instead of feta, I used cheddar; and I sauteed some fresh mushrooms and added some toasted pine nuts, which worked very well. Also, I used a pie plate instead of a tart pan, and it was a great success, absolutely flavorful and delicious. The phyllo crust came out flaky and crispy. Have definitely become one of my signature recipes :)

This fruity delicious dish is made with pineapple, honeydew melon, cantalope and nectarines.

Slow-cooked beef patties in a creamy mushroom and onion gravy. Real comfort food.

A lively fresh appetizer perfect for the summer. Mint and oregano brightness the couscous toped with fried tomatoes, almonds and a bit of salty feta.

Unlike the classic French toast that's usually high in calories, fat and very rich. This recipe uses 1% milk, egg whites only and whole wheat bread, which makes a much healthier French toast for breakfast that still tastes delicious. Some fresh fruits, a cup of orange juice and a bit maple syrup, a yummy and wholesome breakfast is ready to enjoy.

Quick, easy and delicious. Serve it as a salad along with your main course, or simply make a yummy sandwich with it. No fuss recipe!

This is one of my absolute favorite things to make at this time of year. It takes almost no time to prepare, so I’ll whip up a big batch on my day off and then all I have to do when I get home is put it in a bowl or mash it up and put it on toasted bread drizzled with some olive oil. It also makes a great appetizer along with some homemade or store-bought pita chips. Honestly, when serving this as a dip or a spread, I don’t even bother taking out my food processor, I just use the bottom of a glass and mash it a bit.

Bright and spicy, even better it's a great way to use up leftover chicken.

This colorful yet flavorful salad is made with assorted vegetables and cooked rice, tossed with a light and tasty soy-maple dressing. It's a refreshing summer salad that can be served with any BBQ. Make it a day ahead, put in the frige, it tastes even better next day.

This prosciutto, fontina and sun-dried tomato tart was brilliant. The combination of these three ingredients and the buttery-crispy puff pastry was absolutely delicious!
