  • Chris breaks down the Mayacoba bean. Mixed with pesto, chopped sage, and a drizzle of Bellucci EVOO, this meaty Peruvian mainstay is delectable atop a toasted baguette. (7:44)
  • What’s better than a BLT? A BLT+ just might be! Whether it’s light as lettuce or locked and loaded, we’ve got all the goods on preparing this classic summertime sandwich. #tomatobacondays (10:51)

  • We’re diving into dessert with a delicious berry crumble. Check out our July newsletter for the full recipe. (14:44)
  • This jam-packed episode ends with a summer staple: corn. Brooke reveals an easy trick to extend its sweetness well into autumn, and Chris shares a versatile recipe for corn stock. Don’t forget to compost those cobs! (18:35)
