"An antipasto salad is meant to be enjoyed, quite literally 'before the meal,' and I love to use this recipe as an introduction for what's to come in the courses that follow. It also works well for lunch, since the mix of meats, cheeses, and greens make it pretty hearty—something that can stand alone." - Joanna Gaines, Magnolia Table, Volume 3

"A dish that looks fancy but is secretly simple will always have a place on my table. Wedge salads in general are great at pulling this off—and fortunately, everyone in our family enjoys them. I like to slice the iceberg wedges beforehand, then serve the toppings family-style so everyone can tailor their own. The kids and I like to dress our salad with ranch, but Chip always prefers blue cheese. Since this is one of Chip's favorite salads, that classic take is what I've shared here." – Joanna Gaines, Magnolia Table, Volume 3

My dad inspired this grilled cheese method with a drizzle of maple syrup. The salty-sweet crunch is so loveable and really nostalgic for me. The combo of cheese and butter plus maple syrup and toasty bread is magic. Any good melting cheese will work.

During the cold weather months, it’s lovely to have a hearty and flavorful salad to balance out all the stews and typical winter food. Farro is an ancient grain that tastes nutty and earthy and lends great texture to this salad, which is particularly easy to double for a crowd. The maple syrup in the dressing helps bind everything together and gives it a creamy mouth feel. Remember to strive for caramelization on the roasted veggies -- those browned bits are packed with flavor!

The essence of this dish is bold, simple, messy, off-the-coals shrimp that are finger-licking good. You’ll want to eat the heads, tails, and everything in between, including the shells. At its simplest, the word adobo comes from the verb adobar, which means “to marinate.” Originally adobo was used to describe a Spanish pickling sauce made of olives, vinegar, and spices. Chile-based Mexican adobo, like Spanish adobo, is often used as a marinade for meat and seafood. A protein marinated in adobo is referred to as adobada. Adobo can be thinned out with broth to make a sauce, turned into the base of a stew, or used as a condiment. Here adobo does triple duty as a marinade and brushing sauce for jumbo shrimp as well as being served as a spicy dipping sauce alongside.
