A colourful array of vegetables makes this salad a must for summer barbecues and picnics.
Traditionally served before an Italian meal, an antipasto platter is a stunning (and easy) way to showcase seasonal vegetables. A quick tomato relish, vaccented with tart vinegar, adds contrast when served over top. This recipe also makes a healthful side dish for grilled poultry and steak.
Summer harvest vegetables round out this fresh, flavourful dish. You can substitute the tilapia with any firm-flesh fish that will stay intact on a hot, well oiled grill.
A Swiss dish, raclette is simply cheese melted by the fire then usually scraped onto potatoes. This delicious casserole version comes from The Raclette Restaurant in Toronto. Swiss-type cheeses, such as Emmenthal can be substituted for Oka cheese. If desired, add 1 cup (250 mL) cubed baked ham. Round out the meal with a tossed green salad, pickled gherkins and pearl onions.
These vegetarian tacos are full of a high-protein cheese that doesn't get too gooey when grilled.
