Give summer's iconic sandwich an upgrade with this easy recipe.
| I know we're here to talk about dinner, but I wanted to point your attention to the Mocha Smoothie recipe at the end of this email. I've been making a version of this smoothie for years, using up the leftover room temperature coffee that always seems to be hanging out in my cup. For a chocolate-lover like me, it's a delightful way to start the day. If you're looking for other smoothie recipes to counter the summer heat try this tropical mango smoothie or gorgeous green smoothie. Now, on to dinner! | | |

|
| | Slow Cooker Chicken Tostadas | | For the tenderest chicken ever, turn to your slow cooker. This recipe transforms boneless, skinless chicken thighs into juicy, salsa-infused meat, perfect for topping tostadas or tucking into tacos. | |
|
|
|
| | Peanutty Soba Noodle Salad | | The creamy sauce that coats these slurpable noodles is simply made with peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and a touch of sugar for balance. While these noodles are a fantastic dinner as-is, you can add cooked chicken or shrimp for extra protein. | |

|
| | Grilled Sausage Hoagies with Mango Salsa | | Mango salsa may seem retro, but its deliciousness just can't be denied (IMHO). This one is studded with red bell pepper, red onion, and jalapeño, and showered with lime juice for a sweet-spicy topper to juicy grilled sausages. | |
|
|
|
| | Tofu and Mushroom Lettuce Wraps | | Wrap anything in a lettuce cup and it's instantly refreshing. Pile on rice, shiitake mushrooms, and an umami-rich tofu topping and it becomes immensely satisfying, too. | |
|
|
|
| | Heirloom Tomato and Herb BLT's | | A couple of easy touches level up this otherwise classic BLT. First, mayo is gussied up with basil, dill, and garlic. And then, instead of just using lettuce, you'll tuck in more basil and dill. So easy and so good! | |

|
| | Mocha Smoothie | | If you're a coffee drinker and a chocolate fan, try this one! Antioxidant-rich cocoa powder offers a deep mocha flavor, nut butter packs protein, a fiber-rich date sweetens the smoothie, and a frozen banana helps achieve a creamy, luscious texture. | |
