Grilled Wild Salmon with Garlic Scape Pesto and Summer Squash
Wild salmon tops the list of fish that are high in omega-3 and low in mercury. So swap out farmed
salmon, which contains food dyes, for the real thing. Frozen sides of wild salmon offer the best value.
Garlic scapes are the young, soft stems and unopened flower buds of hardneck garlic. This variety of
garlic tends to be prevalent at farmer's markets. The season for scapes is short, so if you can't find them you can substitute scallions or baby leeks.

Mixed Leafy Green Soup "Caldo Verde" with Chickpeas
Caldo verde means "green broth" in Portuguese, and it is Portugal's unofficial national dish. This beautiful green soup is technically a hot smoothie, since its many nutritious greens are pureed together in a blender. Chickpeas are an important ingredient here, too. Fiber- and protein-rich, they've been shown in studies to help people lose weight. For added protein, top with 4 ounces of shredded chicken or add 2 dozen clams to the broth.
