Shrimp and Broccoli Stir-Fry

Lemon Risotto with Peas, Tarragon, and Leeks
"Wow, this one was a stunner. I quartered sugar snap peas and parboiled them, and skipped the leek. The homemade chicken stock is critical for this, as well as every other recipe that calls for chicken broth. We served it with roasted wild salmon. To. Die. For." —SingingGourmand

Fiery Peach and Habanero Salsa
"This was great, albeit pretty spicy. I love spicy food but it has quite a kick. Might use a little less haberno next time. Served it over chicken with brown rice and used the leftover for tacos with cabbage. Would be good with pork or fish also." —liz1379

Grilled Lamb Chops with Roasted Summer Squash and Chimichurri
"Made this over the weekend, and my husband and I really enjoyed it. Istead of roasting the zucchini & squash, I grilled it (for about 4 min per side), since I had to fire up the grill for the lamb already and didn't want to heat up the house by turning on the oven. We will definitely make this again!" —klwozniak

Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo
"This recipe had great flavor and was very creamy. I did increase the amount of sauce by about 1/3 and made sure to add enough cooking water so the pasta didn't dry out. You would NEVER know the recipe had no butter!" —osequin

Chicken Enchiladas
"Best chicken enchiladas I've had, home-made OR restaurant. Ooey-gooey, delicious and best of all simple. Suggest cooking, shredding, freezing chicken ahead in bulk and freezing the stock for this and other uses to save time on weeknight meals. We used a combination of red and green bell peppers and a bit of chopped fresh jalapeno as well. Great with a Spanish or Mexican rice." —amymac96
