Zucchini

Any seasonal vegetables can replace the zucchini and onion; at Chase’s, they change it up frequently.

The only way to make flatbread even better? Grill it.

We like the texture of the leeks and zucchini when left al dente—if grilled too long, they’ll both go floppy.

Whole grain mustard and olive oil take the place of traditional mayonnaise in this lightened version of potato salad. It’s an ideal complement to roast chicken for serving at any early fall picnic or casual Sunday supper.

The dressing in this dish, from Puritan & Co. in Boston, is destined to become your new go-to creamy Caesar.

Adding veggies to the marinade while warm helps them absorb more flavor.
