Can you hear the faint whisper of Spring bidding you it's soft goodbye? Summer wants her turn!
And with the change of season comes a change in menu as well.
I want to eat fresher... lighter! And I have an urge to stick almost any food on the grill! Smoke does wonders for a piece of meat!
The menu this week at StoneGable is beginning to reflect Summer's appearance... and the fresh produce in the garden...
Some of my garden zucchinis should be ready for zucchini boats on Sunday! This is a new-to-me recipe and I can't wait to give it a try! We will be eating a lot of zucchini! They are prolific in my garden. Look for an upcoming culinary tutorial for zucchini relish... it is really delicious!
Now, here's what's ON THE MENU...
MONDAY
Steaks On The Grill
Miz Helen's Crock Pot Au Gratin Potatoes
Lettuce From The Garden With Red Wine Vinaigrette
TUESDAY
Pesto Polenta Lasagna
Italian Herb Crusted Chicken

It all looks just scrumptious! We WERE going to eat outdoors tonight, but it got a tad chilly! But we DID get to have cocktails outside after working in the yard/beds all day!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your week!

Thanks for hosting this great party. I love the Caprese Tower, beautiful! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYvonne: Another week of winning recipes.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited about the recipes for the homemade salad
dressings.
i remember your caprese salad from last summer. It was a big
hit with our family. Can't wait to have homegrown tomatoes
for the caprese salad.

ReplyDeleteEverything looks wonderful! I wanted to check out the crock pot au gratin potatoes, but the link takes me to the steak recipe.
ReplyDeleteSorry about that! I fixed it!
DeleteHi Yvonne,
ReplyDeleteWhat a pleasant surprise to find my Crock Pot Au Gratin Potatoes on your great menu, thank you so much for your kindness! We are thinking along the same lines, it is a seasonal change about now and a welcome one, lots of great food to cook in the summer. Hope you have a wonderful week and thank you so much for giving us this great party!

Thanks for hosting, Yvonne. Your menu looks wonderful especially the grilled foods which I have had on my brain since planning for my Grill, BBQ and Picnic Party on June 17. This time of the year is perfect for trying all the fresh things available. Have a great week!----------Shannon

Thanks again!

ReplyDeleteMany thanks for having me today Yvonne. Have a lovely week.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,

Yvonne~ As usual, everything sounds and looks delicious on your weekly menu! I'm afraid Summer has stormed her way in and rudely shoved Spring aside here for awhile now! Thanks for having me this week~ I'll look forward to your salad dressings post :)
ReplyDeleteI welcome summer as it's my favorite time of the year. I totally agree with you that if you ever make your own vinaigrette or salad dressing, you will never go back to the bottled stuff.
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting On the Menu Monday. I'm sharing an authentic Cajun Crawfish Boil at a blogger get-together.
