Happy Fourth of July! I am pausing Sunday Supper today for the Fourth of July holiday. Instead, I have a quick and easy Watermelon White Wine Spritz. This wine cocktail is easy to scale up for a group; it's so versatile; you can make up a batch in a drink dispenser; or you can prep individual servings in Mason jars.

Hello and welcome to Pizza and a Movie on Djalali Cooks! I absolutely love corn on pizza. We have done it a few times here; Esquites Pizza, and Wild Palms Flatbread come to mind. Today's recipe roasts fresh corn and cherry tomatoes with thinly sliced red onion until everything is caramelized and loaded with sweet, roasted summer flavor. To give a little color, I added diced fresh jalapeño after the cook and topped the pizza with dollops of ricotta. Both of the finishing toppings are totally optional.

Today I have an easy snack that is positively addictive! Air Fryer Barbecue Seasoned Chickpeas are crispy, a little crunchy, with some tender centers. Seasoned with chili powder, cayenne, sugar, garlic powder and kosher salt to give the crispy chickpeas a wonderfully savory barbecue flavor. A protein-packed snack perfect for topping salads, or just snacking right out of the bowl (with an icy cold beverage).

I have a great grilled chicken recipe just in time for all the barbecue parties and get togethers celebrating the Fourth of July this weekend. Huli Huli Grilled Chicken. This Hawaiian grilled chicken is a fantastic alternative to the usual barbecue-sauced grilled chicken. With a simple all-in-one teriyaki-style marinade and basting sauce, the magic happens on the grill.

I spent last week in St. Louis visiting my dearest friend. She is undergoing chemotherapy and while she does have an appetite, it's for things a little different than what she'd normally eat. One thing in particular was fresh blueberries over a sliced up Twinkie. She joked that the Twinkie would probably give her cancer, but it was a sweet, comforting treat. Her sense of humor has not diminished, which I am very thankful for.

When I got home, I thought about that Twinkie and blueberry combination. A Twinkie is a spongecake cylinder filled with sweet cream, and while my baking skills make me nervous about tackling a true spongecake, I thought a simple moist cake would suffice. Then we have fresh blueberries mixed with lemon juice and sugar for the upside down topping, with whipped cream and fresh blueberries for the top. It’s Blueberry Upside Down Cake!

This one's for you @kali_su ❤️

Hello and welcome to Sunday Supper! Let me start by saying I love this pasta dish! Caramelized corn with thinly cut asparagus, seasoned with turmeric and tossed with a light sauce of garlic, white wine, and pasta water, finished with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. It's so light, yet so full of sweet corn flavor; the earthiness of turmeric and the bright white wine make such a great combination. A perfect summer pasta dish with bright colors and sunny flavors.
