Dried pasta cooks in chicken broth and milk, which forms the basis for a divinely creamy sauce that kids will love and parents (and their guests) will relish. The grown-ups will especially appreciate how few pots and pans there are to clean.

Cucumber Melon Gazpacho
This cold soup blends inspirations: half Spanish gazpacho and, with a refreshing mix of yogurt, cucumber and mint, half Indian raita. When melons are at peak sugary and juicy ripeness, almost any variety will shine in this recipe. We’re particularly fond, however, of honeydew, canary melon and yellow watermelon.

Kohlrabi and Apple Salad
A newcomer in our curbside garden, this sturdy veg from the cabbage family is incredibly versatile. Turns out kohlrabi is addictively crunchy in the raw. We simply sliced it to make this salad, where it nestles with apple, plum, grapes and mizuna, a delicate little leaf with a mustardy taste not unlike arugula.

Parsnip Crème Brûlée
What do some of the best crème brûlée recipes have in common? A delicious infusion, to start. In this case, parsnip—simmered in milk and puréed—gives the classic dessert a complex, nutty lift. A touch of maple syrup complements the root vegetable’s unexpectedly sweet personality. Torch the sugared top to finish, and brace for applause.

Salmon Shepherd’s Pie
Doubling this recipe is no work at all, and it may save family dinner, too. With a second casserole in the freezer, a nourishing supper is just minutes away when weeknights get crazy. If you’re freezing this recipe, consider puréeing rather than ricing the potatoes for smoother texture upon reheating.

Ravioli Ratatouille

With store-bought ravioli and a quick ratatouille made up to three days in advance and frozen, then thawed in the fridge, it all comes together in the blink of an eye.
