Who doesn't love Bruschetta on a soft summer evening? To me, it conjures up the end of a leisurely day at the beach in Southern France where I grew up! It's usually served over little toasted baguette slices as an appetizer. Here, basically all I do is add canned tuna, and serve it over mixed greens. It's superb, it's festive and it's no fuss!

Grilled Swordfish With Pink Grapefruit Pepper Salsa
This is a nice way to prepare fish steaks on the grill in the summer. I use swordfish here because it is so easy to grill but you can use other fish steaks as well. In fact, I hasten to add that one should not have swordfish too often, as it is one of those fish that contains mercury, so definitely in moderation for adults and best avoided altogether by pregnant women and ...

This is such a simple recipe that involves broiling the fish with a ... Read More »
