Summer is here (yeah!) and the weather is perfect for dining alfresco. Could you please share with us some of your favorite menu ideas for these warm days? Perhaps things that could be made in the morning to be served cool or at room temperature? Or something made earlier that would need just a quick warming up? Starting with appetizers, salad(s), possible side dish, main dish, dessert, and if you know, the type of wine you would serve? And if the recipes for these dishes are in your cookbooks, could you please name which books they come from, so we can buy them? Thanks!

Caprese salad is always a favorite with tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella. I love rice salads in the summer too. A whole grilled branzino or sea bass is perfect for a main course since it's always so fresh and light. For dessert, I love white peach, blueberry and Prosecco soup.
