Planning our meals during the summer can be tricky at times because on hot nights we like to picnic at the town pool or head out on our boat and eat dinner while we cool off. We tried to plan meals this week that could be easily transported. We try to take advantage of the farmer's market and the fresh herbs that we grow on our deck.
This week in particular we are trying different salads. If any seem appealing to you, please contact me and I'll send you the recipe.
This week's meals at a glance...
Monday: Avocado- black bean salad with taco fixins'.
Tuesday: Pasta salad with fresh herbs & veggies.
Wednesday: Gazpacho soup and baguette sandwiches with pesto, tomatoes & fresh mozzarella.
Thursday: Quinoa & salmon salad with arugula. For some of my boys, I will serve them the salmon and salad separately. I just reserve a little of each before I mix all together.
Friday: Fourth of July picnic! Burgers, dogs, and big salad are my assignments.
My family loves the casual meals and lighter menus for the summer. Still trying to make it healthy but fun. enjoy all!
