Shortcake-Deconstructed

Summer’s just begun and is in full force. Many of us crave lighter cuisine and no-cook recipes prepared with fresh seasonal produce. Light, fruity desserts such as short-cut strawberry shortcake made with sponge cake or angel food cake is a summer stand-by that hits the spot on a summer’s night. In Explore the Store, read about our simple-sweet Dessert Shells that take the cake for this all-American treat. You can’t miss our Berry Festival that runs the first full week in July. The perfect accompaniment to our Dessert Shells, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries are not only some of the most dependably delicious fruits, but they’re also dense in nutrients. Read more in HealthWise. Spongecake with fresh berry topping needs only one thing: sweetened whipped cream…from scratch. In all its simplicity, just a few seconds can take this two-ingredient recipe from sublime to unsatisfactory. In Kitchen 911, read about one tip to fix overwhipped cream, plus a few pointers to make sure it comes out right every time.

For light, easy-to-prepare entrées, look no further than Schnucks Cooks. Check out these super-star recipes: Salmon & Herb Sauce, Lime Barramundi with Key Largo Mango Salsa and our Classic Cobb Salad.
