Happy Monday! This week, we’re giving away another of my favorite things: cute aprons.
The Foodie Groom has absolutely no use for cute aprons. And usually no opinion on whether they’re actually cute or not. And to make sure we have enough room in the kitchen drawers for things that he actually cares about, like being able to find kitchen towels, I’ve been relocating my apron collection aprons to a linen closet as they come out of the laundry.
To enter, simply leave a comment below and tell us: What’s your favorite, quick, go-to dinner in the summer?
Our current favorite? Penne & Zucchini Carbonara

Lately, quinoa cakes with a poached egg has been my quick go-to dinner! Protein power!
A refreshing salad with all the choppings!
A light soup along with a fruit vinagrette dressed salad while out with friends on a patio!
Usually grilled chicken or pork served with rice, black beans and a fresh veggie such as green beans. I also keep ground turkey meat in the freezer because enchilada casserole is something I can quickly throw together.
Beth
P.S. I just found your blog through browneyedbakers blog. Can’t wait to look at all your recipes. I will be making the pepperoni pizza monkey bread.
Breakfast for dinner! Eggs and bacon, pancakes and sausage, clean out the refrigerator omelets. Depends on what is on hand.
My quick dinner of choice lately has been pasta salad. Quick, cold, and yummy!
I love roasted veggies with pasta for an easy summer dinner.
Quesadillas. We always have tortillas on hand, cheeses, etc. as well. I make a chunky salsa that my sister-in-law taught me to do, and we usually have some of that as well. Then we either go queso w/ salsa or add some pollo if we have some on hand already cooked & ready to go.
Grilled balsamic chicken and asparagus. We also like the harvest blends mix from Trader Joe’s. I love that Apron – so cute!
Gazpacho! It’s not only a cold soup to cool you off, but it’s always super easy. And you can use the great tomatoes which are now in season.
BLTs and corn on the cob!! absolutely!

My go to recipes in the summer always revolve around fresh farmer’s market veggies. I still like to eat warm, home cooked meals, regardless of the heat outside.

I hate to say it, but with this heat…ham sandwiches! When it’s not quite as hot, I love making a no name dish with cubed chicken, canned tomatoes (with basil and lemon pepper added), zucchini and mushrooms. I add some crushed red pepper for some kick and serve it over vermicelli. My kids love spaghetti, but I think it’s boring, so this is an easy compromise. :o)

Our go to dinner in the summer would have to be burgers and or hot dogs on the grill. It is quick and simple yet super delicious. We can’t get enough of grilled food during the summer! We change it up with different toppings or seasonings so it doesn’t get boring.
Simple stir fried vegetables. Gotta love that amazing summer produce!
Quesadillas. We always have tortillas, cheese, and chipotle peppers sitting around. We use leftover veggies from other meals to change up the contents.
Curried chicken salad with fruit.
Whatever vegetables are hanging around from the farmer’s market and the garden: fresh corn, cucumbers, tomato, red onion. Chop ’em up, drizzle with apple cider vinegar and olive oil, throw in some fresh basil, mint, and chives from the garden, salt and pepper. Serve with bread and maybe some fresh mozzarella. Tastes like summer 🙂
Fresh salad components from the garden and farmer’s market. I’ve started tossing peaches or strawberries in with spinach and other lettuce I’m growing in the garden to make different salads. The fruit juices can act as enough dressing to complete salad without adding anything extra. Fresh broccoli kicks it up a notch further. Sometimes I dress the salad up with hard boiled egg or grilled chicken with different marinades to change the flavor. I’ve come to like the Hidden Valley Ranch Roasted Onion Parmesan Dressing for when I use chicken in the salad.
Favorite go-to dinner would have to be whatever can go on the grill – meat, veggies, potatoes.
TACOS!!!!
Chicken Caesar salad. Yum.
Homemade pesto is my go-to dinner in the summer! My basil plants are growing like crazy, so I’m constantly making this good stuff!

I’m currently in love with anything with a Mexican flare to it, and I’m LOVING fish tacos this year. But in a pinch, I love to throw together a batch of my favorite fiesta chicken to be used in salads, as a topping for nachos, or as a filler for a tortilla shell.

Taco salad! It’s easy, versatile, and my hubby doesn’t get tired of it. 🙂
I’ve been making a lot of chilled Greek salad with lentils – a good, light summer meal!
Probably a nice refreshing salad!

chicken and corn on the cob on the grill. But mostly because my hubby is in charge of the grill, so I don’t have to cook 🙂

Pasta with fresh tomatoes (not made into a sauce; just diced), mozzarella, and green onions. (I almost didn’t enter this giveaway because I never wear aprons, and then it occurred to me that if I had more that were super cute, I might actually wear them instead of messing up my clothes!)
Oh, and I already follow you on Twitter.
tomatoes from my garden, an avocado, and a little salt sprinkled on top. I could eat this all summer!

Grilled fajitas on the grill!
My favorite thing to make is BBQ chicken pizza, making the dough and sauce from scratch. I love working with breads.
We love pretty much anything you can fit inside a tortilla! Yum 🙂

The grill has been our go-to for quick meals this summer! Grilled chicken and vegetables (mostly squash and zucchini because they grill so nicely and the garden is booming with them!)
Our easy summer dinner is quesadillas. I get out the quesadilla maker and all the ingredients and the family lines up to make their own!
