ITALIAN CHICKEN SAUSAGE AND ORZO
Light, quick and tasty are my kind of recipes. There's a nice blend of Italian seasoning and a hint of heat from the crushed red pepper. If you like it milder, use less or if you like to say, "bring on the heat," use more.

GRILLED PANZANELLA WITH ITALIAN SAUSAGE AND CHICKEN
This is a summertime favorite of my family. The grilled bread, vegetables, and meats add that smoky char while the dressing adds the tang and sweetness. Serving over arugula gives the salad that peppery finish we all love. By not mixing the arugula into the dressing, you can save any leftovers and just warm slightly and then serve over the arugula.
