"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

Grilled Lamb Chops with Roasted Summer Squash and Chimichurri

Credit: Photo: John Autry; Styling: Cindy Barr

"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

Chicken Enchiladas

Credit: Photo: Howard Lee Puckett; Styling: Buffy Hargett

"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
