We all crave something starchy on the menu, but this year consider a creamy risotto instead of mashed or scalloped potatoes. Backstreet Cafe in Houston uses one pot to cook everything for this risotto. You want your rice to be creamy and your green vegetables to still have a slight bite.

Smashed Cumin Lamb Burgers
The lamb burgers sit on a bed of sweet and spicy caramelized red onions and jalapeños and the bun is slathered with a bright, zingy herb sauce that can be made with either Greek yogurt or mayonnaise (or my favorite, a combination of both).
Boudro’s Charmoula sauce
I’m a huge fan of lamb. Packed with protein, zinc and vitamin B12, it’s so good for you. Try it marinated in this Mediterranean Charmoula Sauce from Boudro’s. Enjoy!
Backstreet Cafe’s Heirloom and Cherry Tomato Cocktail
This recipe seemed like a perfect choice for Backstreet’s Tomato Seasonal Menu. Celebrate the peak of tomato season by using tomatoes of different shapes and colors to make this cocktail interesting.
