Basil/18 recipes

"This delicious main dish is really open to your own taste in fresh vegetables. Feel free to switch your favorites for your not-so-favorite ones. Some have even suggested adding mushrooms, garlic, diced cooked chicken and extra sauce."

Yum. The combination of asparagus and mushrooms inside the omelet was packed with flavor, and it went deliciously well with omelette.

So yummy, store-bought seven-layer dip can never beat freshly homemade version, no doubt.

Load up on your power vegetables, sweet potatoes and sweet red bell pepper in this satisfying pasta main dish.

This refreshing, quick and easy stir-fry satisfy your stomach within a few minutes, serve it with rice, quinoa or any your favorite cooked grain.

Used roma tomatos, basil and parsley from the garden, which made the soup super refreshing and tasty. Just make sure that when you puree the soup in your blender, use a towel to cover the lid tightly; or just use a hand mixer directly.

I remember this soup from my childhood. Very creamy and thick, full of dill weed. Let it become thin to feel more intense flavor of chanterelle mushrooms.

A refreshingly delicious chickpea and pea salad is packed with goodness. Chunks of feta cheese, olives, and sun-dried tomatoes are tossed with chickpea, peas, fresh mint, basil, and a lemon juice-red wine vinegar vinaigrette. A perfect summer salad.

Although quite good with using cottage cheese, I prefer to make the rolls with part-skim ricotta. They are delicious!

This soup was such a comfy dish that was just perfect on a cold winter day. The combination was so hearty and it was also very flavourful. Not too hard to make, and I will be making this soup again soon.

Caramelized grilled figs and smoky prosciutto are a delicious pair, and you can find both of them in this salad, mixed with some peppery arugula, gouda cheese and tossed with a basil-roasted bell pepper vinaigrette.
