Orzo Salad with Orange and Fennel

kitchen-bliss-IMG_6546-1.jpg

Orzo is great in salads and this pretty combo is always a hit with family and guests. You may like fennel but are not sure how to use it. If you’ve never had fennel, try this salad where it adds a pleasant crunch.

This can be served at room temperature or chilled so it’s also good for potlucks or picnics.

Orange Date Squares

At markets and bake shops I am a sucker for buying date squares. Two weeks ago I wondered aloud why I never make them myself? Rose to the 'self-challenge' using this recipe from Canadian Living's new Sweet & Simple Cookbook. Many of the recipes use fruit that is at the market now, or in the months to come. I gave up putting stickies on pages I like - I may have to try every recipe over time..
