Fire up the grill, burger season is almost here!  These blue cheese burgers are a favorite of mine, juicy and flavorful but not overpowered by the strong flavor of blue cheese.

I love creamy blue cheese dressing, but I might just love this Blue Cheese Vinaigrette even more. It contains no mayonnaise, sour cream or buttermilk and it's super easy to make. Just throw the ingredients in a blender and pour over salad. Yum.

I was never a fan of sage until I started sauteing the leaves in butter. Of course, pretty much anything tastes great when it's sauteed in loads of butter, but sage leaves become an entirely different herb. Instead of being pungent and a bit fuzzy, the leaves become delicate, nutty little morsels that melt in your mouth. The flavor pairs perfectly with melted cheese, which is why I topped the grilled cheese and prosciutto sandwich I ate yesterday with sage leaves. It was a delicious lunch, and one I highly recommend.

A simple but satisfying dish, baked quinoa with mozzarella has a mild flavor. I like it for breakfast, although it can also be served as a side for dinner.
