Its should come as no surprise how much I love in-season street corn, maybe it’s an Idaho thing, but seriously, when its in season, I can’t seem to get enough! This recipe is a twist on the Mexican Elotes, with flavors evocative of Greece.

Any light meat will pair nicely with this lemongrass “soy” marinade. While it could be made with traditional soy sauce or tamari, AIP and Paleo folks will likely already have coconut aminos on hand. I tolerate soy sauce in limited quantities, but have become accustomed to keeping coconut aminos on hand. I generally keep all the ingredients in this recipe on hand at most times, so this meal is convenient any day of the week with its quick marinade.

I know it sounds nutty to call this a peanut-free peanut sauce, but sometimes the shoe fits. For all of my peanut avoidant friends who are also eliminating tree-nuts and craving that peanutty flavor that is so ubiquitous to Southeast Asian cuisine I’ve got just the recipe for you! I haven’t yet figured out how to make this happy accident a good sub for a PB and J, but if you’re in the market for something to dip a skewer or spring roll in this is just what the doctor ordered.

Cool and refreshing salad of juicy peak season tomatoes and first of the season sweet corn. Drizzled in a basil vinaigrette and mopped up with some sourdough croutons. I can’t think of a better dish to eat when its over 100 outside for the 10th day this week! Light and refreshing, perfect for an early dinner or backyard BBQ.

This chicken sandwich comes together in about the same amount of time as it would take to go through a drive through and get one utilizing an acidic buttermilk marinade (yogurt) which also doubles as a dredge step. Bonus points for all of the ingredients coming from the Nampa Farmers Market!

Strawberries are one of the first fruits to become available at the farmers market. I always try to freeze a few for dressings and smoothies for the rest of the year. Fresh local vine ripened strawberries just can’t be beat and while they are in season you can count on me eating as many as I can get my hands on!

Lebanese Toum, similar to an aoili, but without the addition of egg yolks, is perfect for anyone following the AIP. Loaded with tons of garlic and healthy fats, you can use toum anywhere you would normally use garlic. Toum is a wonderful condiment to roasted veggies, but also makes an amazing marinade for meat, fish and veggies; just toss or top before cooking. This recipe makes a large batch that is easily scaled down, but will hold for quite a long time in the refrigerator (if you can make it last that long, I sure can’t).
