Celebrate Dad and kick-off your summer with these seasonal and delicious recipes. Fire up the grill, gather your veggies, and ask Dad to step away from the grill! 

Basil Guacamole

This spin on traditional guacamole uses basil instead of cilantro, giving this party classic a fresh new flavor! So grab the kids and whip up a batch of this easy (and crowd pleasing) starter that’s sure to put a smile on dad’s face. 

Healthy Whole Grain Salad

It’s a hot summer’s day, and the last thing you want is a heavy meal! Try this fresh take on a picnic salad, with fresh citrus, spicy greens, and delicious whole grains. You’ll say good bye to those heavy mayonnaise salads for good.

Curried Vegetable Polenta Kabobs

How can you make kabobs more delicious? Add polenta! Our friend at Naturally Ella gives us her show-stopping Curried Vegetable Polenta Kabob recipe that is not only delicious, but easy to make (and even more fun to eat!).

Steak Fajitas

This traditional Tex Mex recipe calls for skirt steak, but you can make it with chicken, pork, or your favorite vegetable! Throw these on the grill with your kabobs for a summer feast that Dad will turn the game off for.

Berries & Cream

Berries are nature’s dessert, and, lucky you, they are in season, and at their peak sweetness! Grab a bowl of fresh (and local!) berries for a cool summertime dessert. For a touch of sweetness, drizzle some cold heavy cream and grade A maple syrup. Yum!
