Father’s Day Menu
Happy Father’s Day to all the amazing Dads out there!
My son took a couple days off last week
and headed to the beach house with friends
for a guys weekend of fishing and relaxing
He loves to cook, but I’m cooking for him today
I made a batch of his favorite Chex Mix
He loves enchiladas so I made
Easy Cheesy Corn & Pulled Pork Enchiladas
yesterday and they are ready to pop in the oven for dinner tonight
I bought a Key Lime Pie from the bakery for dessert,
but if you want to make one,
try 5 Minute Key Lime Ice Cream Pie
Lemon Blueberry Rolls are ready for breakfast tomorrow
so he can fuel up before work
When he walks into the kitchen he will see this vignette
I bought him an assortment of special sauces~
Bourbon Honey marinade, bourbon is a favorite
Bacon Caesar Dressing because he loves Caesar salad and bacon
Alabama Nick’s Saban Sauce
since he’s an Alabama alumni and a huge Bama fan
I found a new item made by my favorite mayonnaise,
Duke’s Alabama White BBQ sauce
He will have fun experimenting with all of these
I made the sign with PicMonkey
This is our family favorite recipe for Chex Mix
