Ideas to serve as main course or entrée.

Three sisters stew

This three sisters stew is a hearty, vegetable-packed hug in a bowl, built around the classic trio of corn, beans, and squash. Those three ingredients simmer together with onion, garlic, tomatoes, and herbs until the squash turns tender, the beans go creamy, and the corn gives little pops of sweetness in every bite. It’s thick, cozy, and satisfying enough to serve as a main dish, no meat required.

Grilled scallop and shrimp brochettes with tropical salsa

Skewers of sweet, succulent sea scallops and plump, juicy shrimp are grilled to perfection, then crowned with a vibrant tropical salsa that bursts with the flavors of mango, pineapple, and a hint of zesty lime. The combination of caramelized seafood and bright, fruity salsa creates a beautiful harmony of tastes and textures that is both refreshing and satisfying. 

This dish is the essence of summer dining; light, fresh, and incredibly flavorful. It’s perfect for a sophisticated appetizer, or a light main course that feels like a mini-vacation. 

Beer-boiled shrimp

Succulent shrimp simmered in a foamy, flavour-packed beer broth, enhanced with garlic, fresh bay leaf and a hint of black pepper. A simple, one-pot dish that captures the seaside mood, perfect as an appetizer or a casual party favourite.
