Summer's nearly over and it's hot out. Put down the red meat! We love late-August grilling as much as the next guy (our editor in chief Adam Rapoport, for instance) but there's only so much steak one can handle.

So we say double this simple appetizer of scallops with almond vinaigrette. Now you have a main course--one that's not red meat, but still has a satisfying bite. --Matt Duckor
