If you haven’t tried POM Wonderful juices now is the time. I had read about the fantastic health benefits and a cute bottle of pomegranate juice fit the bill. I found it a little concentrated, but cut it with seltzer. Now POM has perfected the magic – POM Lite beverages – new flavors,fewer calories – and all the good stuff left in. De-lish. Change it up this afternoon !

One of two Summer Standards: these two recipes are simple, easy and delicious:
Shrimp Salsa
1lb cooked good quality cocktail shrimp
1 28oz can petite diced tomatoes
1 Vidalia Onion chopped
1 large jalapeno diced (2 if you prefer)
1 bunch washed, chopped cilantro
4-5 limes juiced
Salt and pepper to taste
Rinse shrimp and combine all ingredients in a large bowl; flavor is best if made an hour or two in advance. Serve with Tostitos Scoops chips if possible because they hold the salsa perfectly.
1lb Shrimp Serves 6 adults as an appetizer.
Second Summer Standard: these two recipes are simple, easy and delicious:
Corn Salad
Cooked corn off the cob (perfect use of leftovers)
1 bunch cilantro; washed and chopped
1 bunch chopped scallions or onion
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes cut in half Olive oil+red wine vinegar to taste
Flavor best when made an hour ahead, but not necessary.
You can add almost anything to this recipe – fresh mozzarella or goat cheese, basil in place of cilantro, orzo pasta.
