Ohhh...I adore Tzatziki sauce. It very well could be my favorite dipping sauce. I think what I love about it is how light and fresh it tastes and the little Greek flare that it gives to the food. A few years back, I hosted a "Kebab Potluck" where everyone brought their own kebabs and we grilled out and had a lovely evening of fun and conversation. This recipe is a simple … [Read more...]
Grilled Corn on the Cob
When Silver Queen corn finds its way into grocery stores in August, I need you to make this. Yes...NEED. I really need you to make this. I don't want you to make it. I need you to make it. But be warned, you might not ever want to cook corn any other way. There's just something about corn being grilled and butter and herbs infiltrating the kernels as it cooks in its … [Read more...]
Grilled Garlic Bread
This is my favorite side dish when grilling meat. Because I can grill it alongside the meat and have the entire meal made on the grill. If you aren't grilling garlic bread, you should start now. It'll become your go-to 'starch' for all your future grilling meals. :) See the full Grilling Recipe for Grilled Garlic Bread here! Pin all of our 31 Days of Grilling Recipes … [Read more...]
Grilled Doughnuts Strawberry Shortcake
When I was pulling together old recipes and new ideas for this 31 Day series, I thought...I'll include some dessert recipes at the end of the month because dessert comes at the end of the meal. We should top off the series with some grilling dessert recipes. Then I thought... NO WAY. Let's start with dessert. So I added this ridiculously delicious dessert recipe on day 2. … [Read more...]
Asian Chicken & Veggie Foil Packs
Simple & tasty...that's my dinner-hour motto! This Asian Chicken & Veggie Grill Packs are just that...2 main ingredients plus a homemade Asian marinade...and done! Marinate the chicken, add to 'packet' of foil with some veggies and throw it on the grill. Serve it over or next to some rice. (Or if you're like me, you'll grill some garlic bread and serve with … [Read more...]
Orange Glazed Pork Chops
This is the final recipe in our 31 Days of Budget-Friendly Paleo meals series. I can't believe all the great recipes we shared this past month...and I really can't believe how quickly May flew by. I don't know about you, but May always seems to sail by faster than other months...and I only expect it to move faster as the boys get older! Maybe it's the end of school … [Read more...]
Apple & Almond Butter Sandwiches
So dipping apples in peanut butter has been a long time snack favorite around here. My older boys will happily dip apples in peanut butter for a protein punch in the afternoon, but neither of them would touch a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with a ten foot pole. (I don't get it, but it is what it is.) I decided to 'put it to a test' (albeit, not really a fair test!) to … [Read more...]
Balsamic Beef Roast
Ever had one of those days where the fog just wouldn't lift? Perhaps it was because a kiddo was up sick in the middle of the night, or your anxious about an upcoming change or surgery or news from the doctors office? You're tired all day. Not really thinking straight, can't get out of that funk. And then the dreaded 'oh my, what are we going to eat tonight?' thought … [Read more...]
Roasted Maple Mustard Chicken
One-dish. One-dish. One-dish. I absolutely, positively, without a doubt adore one-dish dinners. (I even wrote an entire cookbook around one-dish dinners.) They are my sanity savers. They help me through the witching hour. They are easy on the post-meal elbow grease. And this one in particular is T.A.S.T.Y! Chicken, red potatoes and carrots. Add a drizzle of homemade … [Read more...]
Southwestern Frittata
When hunting around the Paleo-blog-osphere this past month, I came across many 'no-brainer-I-can-make-these-for-5-bucks' recipes, including this one. Frittatas are great budget-friendly Paleo meals because they use simple ingredients, are heavy on the protein and could work for breakfast, lunch, dinner or even a midnight snack. The only main difference between a 'regular' … [Read more...]
