100+ Summer Recipe Round Up
Summer seems to be a busy time for socializing. It starts with Memorial Day picnics, continues on with picnics and cookouts, then 4th of July, then more picnics and BBQs, then finally ends with Labor Day. Maybe it’s because the weather is much nicer out and people aren’t stuck in snowstorms. Maybe it’s because kids are off school, so schedules revolve around that. Whatever the reason, you need food. Lots of food. I put together a round up of 100+ recipes for your summer menu, including drinks, appetizers, snacks, sides, condiments, main dishes, and dessert. I don’t think you could look at this list and not find anything you’d want to make.
