The temperature may need to catch up with our calendar, but we're ready to kick off the new season with a dinner menu full of vibrant colours and vegetables!

Use chocolate chunks instead of chips in this update to a classic recipe.

You’re not gonna find this Hawaiian-style burger, with kimchi mayonnaise and ginger pickles, on any drive-thru menu. Mix up a little extra kimchi mayo for a flavourful dipping sauce if you’re serving the burgers with fries. - Curtis Stone

Meet my version of Easy Mac! This lazy mac and cheese is what I whip up in the event that I’ve allowed myself to get ravenously carb hungry and am all out of bread. I turn to Israeli couscous, which cooks up quickly and has the most satisfying texture, and my accoutrements of choice are yogurt, cheese and butter. I learned by way of Greek cookbook author Diane Kochilas’s genius yogurt pasta that plain Greek yogurt can be the base for a pretty badass easy-peasy mac and cheese sauce. This is a mac and cheese that requires one measuring cup (yes, math whiz, the 1⁄4 cup!), and one pot (which you can totally eat out of—I won’t tell), but no straining and no roux, and it makes one good serving that will ll you right up. And if you’re really nailing life and have a stray hot dog in your refrigerator, go ahead, cut that up, add it and pat yourself on the back.
