Happy Sunday! Every Sunday we share a recipe so you can cook along with us.
Sunday Dinner
Mediterranean Steak Salad
Hey friends,
I’m always looking for reasons to fire up the grill once the sun comes out, and this Mediterranean Steak Salad is one I come back to again and again. Hanger steak is one of my favorite cuts because it cooks quickly, has incredible flavor, and slices beautifully over a big bowl of greens.
Add tomatoes, cucumbers, chickpeas, feta, olives, fresh herbs, and pickled onions, and you've got a meal that feels both hearty and refreshing at the same time. And the roasted red pepper vinaigrette just brings everything together.
It's a dinner that feels just right for summer and one that I think you'll find yourself making on repeat.
We've also got a great week of classes ahead! Join Chef Nicco for Air Fryer Wild Alaska Rockfish with Lemon-Basil Orzo, Chef Diana for Sheet-Pan Cabbage Pizzas with “Sausage” Crumbles and Peppers, and Chef Nicco again on Thursday for Homemade Italian Sausage Sandwiches. We hope to see you in class!

Air Fryer Wild Alaska Rockfish with Lemon-Basil Orzo (~50min)
Tender air-fried Wild Alaska rockfish gets paired with a rich and silky lemon-basil orzo for a fresh, comforting dinner that feels a little elevated without much effort. The fish stays light and flaky with a simple seasoning blend, while the creamy orzo brings brightness from lemon and fresh basil. Chef instructor: Nicco
Wednesday 6/17 at 4:00pm PT

Sheet-Pan Cabbage Pizzas with “Sausage” Crumbles and Peppers (~50min)
This veggie-forward cabbage pizza swaps dough for roasted cabbage wedges, keeping carbohydrates low while packing in flavor, protein, and non-starchy vegetables. A blend of cottage cheese and reduced-fat mozzarella delivers creamy, melty goodness. Tofu sausage crumbles add savory plant-based protein, and roasted onion and bell peppers boost fiber and veg content, making this a diabetes-friendly, vegetarian main dish that’s hearty and satisfying. Chef instructor: Diana
Thursday 6/18 at 4:00pm PT

Homemade Italian Sausage Sandwiches (~50min)
We’re not gonna lie–making your own sausage is a bit of a project, but the payoff is deeply savory, perfectly seasoned links with a juicy, snappy texture you just can’t get from the grocery store. Tucked into toasted rolls with bright basil lemon aioli and a punchy giardiniera relish, these sandwiches hit every note: rich, creamy, herby, acidic, and just spicy enough. Chef instructor: Nicco
