Soups that simmer for minutes, not hours, and salads that know no season: 75 inviting recipes revolutionize this familiar hot-and-cold combo. “Soup’s on!” will become everyone’s favorite words when you serve up luscious Creamy Asparagus with Mushrooms and Gruyere Croûtes; a coconut-flavored and substantial Brazilian Shrimp Soup; Chicken Avogolemo (a Greek specialty), and Mexican Pozole. For winning salads that aren’t just lettuce, try an amazing Grilled Scallops over Mixed Green and Herb Salad; Chicken with Cucumber and Red Pepper, tossed in Honey Mustard Dressing; and Mixed Greens with Smoked Ham, Black-Eyed Peas, and Roasted Red Pepper Dressing.
