A seriously intense heat wave has just ended here in New York, so even with the air conditioning on in my house I have been trying to use the stove as little as possible... but at the same time everything is bursting in folks gardens...what to do? Make savory pancakes using this recipe: Swiss Chard Pancakes. The great thing about this recipe is you can substitute any green vegetable for the Swiss Chard, so if you have lots of spinach, or kale go right ahead and use it. I topped this with no cook Smoked Salmon which isn't just for bagels in my house. A nice dollop of sour cream and chives makes this a complete warm weather meal.

I love recipes with a story and this has a sweet one about using your finery. It is also a wonderfully light dessert perfect for the summer.

I love the salmon with the Swiss chard pancakes, it sounds delicious! Thanks so much for the party. Have a wonderful weekend, Lisa
ReplyDeleteYou too Lisa thank you for coming by I've been enjoying your astrology series.
DeleteDiane,
ReplyDeleteI love your salmon. Thanks for hosting the party.
Annamaria
Thanks Annamaria... any on cook food on hot days is great.
DeleteWhat a lovely meal for a warm summer day or evening, Diane! I like that the pancakes help use up the garden's bounty too. Thank you so much for featuring my Raspberry and Rose Jelly and Cream today :) This week I've shared my Quick and Easy Peach and Raspberry Cobbler. It's as easy to whip up as muffins. Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou are very welcome April. I love to find light summer meals too. Really loved your jelly and the story that goes with it. You are such a terrific writer along with being a good cook.
DeleteThank you so much for hosting! I had my first chard this summer - I wasn't really a huge fan, but my husband really liked it!
ReplyDelete~Stacy @ Stacy Makes Cents
Well, if you hide the chard in a pancake I assure you it will be much easier to eat.
DeleteI look forward to your blog party each week. There are always so many wonderful links. I especially love that summer salad feature with the figs! Yum..
ReplyDeleteIsn't that the most beautiful and interesting combination of flavors in a salad. Thanks so much for coming each week.
DeleteI've read about the heat wave that swept the north and was concerned for everyone. We're more prepared for the heat in the south. The hottest I've ever been in my life was one year in June visiting NYC.
ReplyDeleteThank you for including my pork with peach salsa. I am honored. Thanks so much for hosting each week Diane and I hope you have a lovely weekend.
Sam
Thank you for your concern. Yes, I especially worry about elderly people without AC. A lot of people don't have AC because some summers you can get away with out needing more than a few times. Well, it is pleasant now in NY until the next weather event. Thank you again for your great recipes.
DeleteIt's always crazy hot and humid in Eastern NC, but it was freakishly cool when I went out this morning...I don't know what is going on! I'm not ready to even think about Fall! Thanks for hosting, and have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteYeah, our weather got really cool yesterday too. My poor daughter had to go to swim practice in a sweatshirt. The weather is getting weirder. Thanks for coming to the party always enjoy your recipes.
DeleteThank you so much for hosting, Diane! I can relate to not wanting to turn the stove on living here in Texas. I make lots of savory pancakes but never with swiss chard. Fantastic idea!
ReplyDeleteOh, try the swiss chard it works very well. I like spinach a lot too. Thanks for coming by.
DeleteI love, love smoked salmon. This looks like a great brunch food!
ReplyDeleteSee it's not just for brunch anymore.. this was a dinner for us. Wonderful! Glad to see you.
DeleteHi Diane,
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try your Swiss Chard Pancake, that looks delicious. It looks like a five star meal to me. Hope you have a great weekend and thanks for hosting.
Miz Helen
Thanks Miz Helen, I always regard your opinion highly. Thanks again for regularly coming to this party.
DeleteEach of the features looks so good! It is morning and I am hungry and I want them all. Thanks for a great party!
ReplyDeleteI hear you I think I could make one meal out of them for sure!
DeleteThanks for the party and have a great weekend! I linked up my blackberry challenge and I see you featured the other salad that was entered... that looks amazing with the figs!
ReplyDeleteThat raspberry dessert of April's looks amazing. Thanks for hosting Diane!
ReplyDeleteAnne xx
Yes, I love the rose water and the little bit of pistachio...kinda of Turkish.
DeleteThanks so much for your party, Diane!
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome good to see you Lyuba.
DeleteSuper combo and looks so yum! Such a clever way to add greens to our diet...
ReplyDeleteGreat for kids who like the idea of eating a pancake for dinner and don't even notice that there are vegetables in it.
DeleteHi! I'm new to Foodie Friday - thanks for the link up! That summer salad looks divine :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome, so glad to have you.
DeleteThanks so much for throwing this awesome party Diane, always a fun time. Great features this week too, delicious! I hope you have a fantastic weekend!
ReplyDeleteKrista @ joyfulhealthyeats
Thanks so much Diane for another fabulous link party! I love sharing each week.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful weekend!
My best,
Nancy
You are welcome always good to see you here Nancy.
DeleteThank you for the party, Diane. I am honored to be featured alongside such beautiful dishes.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad the heat wave broke for you. We're in the middle of one right now!
You are very welcome Michelle,
DeleteYour dishes are always so interesting. I love how you share so much of your regional cuisine with us week after week.
Hi Diane,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind invitation to share here on your wonderful Friday blog get-together! I've been so super busy this summer and apologize for my absence (I've only posted twice in the entire month of July!). I feel for your torture of heat on this east coast where we both live, but man, we're drowning in rain down here in SC and my garden is nearly dead . . . just another reminder that Mother Nature is always the 'boss'. I love each and every one of your featured recipes for this week . . . truly wonderful food bloggers as well, deserving the honor! Wish I had some Swiss chard right now , but maybe I can find some in the fresh market to make your outstanding pancakes!
Happy summer, Diane!
xoxo
Roz
Roz,
DeleteIt is so wonderful to see you here no matter how often you can make it. So sorry to hear about you having so much rain. We started out dry this summer but have had a good balance of wet and dry. Great weather for tomatoes.
I love smoke salmon and these pancakes are to die for. So gourmet and perfectly delicious. Love the recipes that you feature. :) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Amy. The pancakes are really simple to make but pretty exotic to me because I had never made savory pancakes before... hope you enjoy them.
DeleteI love topping mini pancakes with smoked salmon! Wish I had done this when we made these for FFwD...LOVE yours!
ReplyDeleteI didn't put salmon on them for FFWD... I went all vegetarian that night, yes, I agree it is great... makes a really nice appetizer as a mini.
DeleteLoving the Smoked Salmon recipe, Yumm! <3 @acmesmokedfish
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by... I'll check your site out.
DeleteYour local... I've bought your product before excellent fish!
DeleteSmoked salmon isn't just for bagels at our house either. I absolutely love this and can't wait to make it for myself. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear... I hope you enjoy the pancakes too.
DeleteI adore savory pancakes and can't wait to give these a try! I am pretty late to your link party but wanted to say hello :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for stopping by Amy.
Deletethat looks wonderful Diane!
ReplyDeleteSmoked Salmon is big in NY but mostly on bagels.
DeleteThis sounds really good!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeni and it's easy to make.
DeleteI just love this dish Diane. Thank you so much for sharing your awesome recipe with Full Plate Thursday. Hope you are having a great weekend and come back soon!
