Why this cherry tomato salad? What makes it so good you may ask? I will tell you. It’s the combination of my special vinaigrette, summer cherry tomatoes and feta cheese.

The special vinaigrette that I’ve been making for years is bright, tangy and slightly sweet, and so are the cherry tomatoes....
To make this soup you will need chicken or vegetable broth, red lentils, potatoes, onion, garlic, tomatoes, salt, pepper and, obviously, chicken. I’ve tried chunks of chicken and ground chicken and have always come back to ground chicken. I just love the texture of ground chicken in this soup. If you are going to grind your own chicken, you have the option of using dark or white chicken meat. White chicken meat is leaner and healthier but dark chicken meat definitely makes the soup tastier....

(This is a sponsored post written in conjunction with The Brooklyn Creamery Company and a campaign for Sverve. All opinions are 100% my own.) Being the good Brazilian that I am (is that such a thing of bad Brazilian? Oh yes, there is!) my heart flutters at any mention of the word “cream”. So many Brazilian dishes require some sort of cream and, after moving to the U.S., I always have trouble finding the right kind....
