Menu of the week: recipe ideas from Monday July 22 to Sunday July 28

In the middle of summer, there’s nothing like light plates and especially good fresh products. For this, we cook summer fruits and vegetables in all sauces: peppers, eggplants, zucchini or cucumbers, for vegetables, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and peaches, for fruits. We therefore rely on summer salads to die for, fresh dishes, or even gourmet fruit desserts, to enjoy all week long.
