Summer seems to be flying by,
and I can’t get enough of all the wonderful fruits
and vegetables available right now!
This month I will be making a lot of vegetable recipes,
especially Zucchini which is the flavor of the month

Here’s what I made from the June Paint Bucket
The flavor/theme of the month was Tastes of Summer
Kate Middleton’s Watermelon Salad from Our Tiny Nest
inspired a round up 5 Watermelon Recipes
I didn’t ever get around to making
Mini Pesto Grilled Cheese Sandwiches from XO & So
but I did post a round up of 11 Summer Sandwiches
that won’t heat up your kitchen
I decided to simplify Summer Stuffed Shells from How Sweet Eats
by using spinach & ricotta ravioli and vegetables
and layering the ingredients in a casserole dish like a lasagna
Summer Corn & Zucchini Lasagna
Blue Cheese Butter Burgers from Food Network Magazine
are so good, we will be making them again!
Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Tacos from The Lazy Dish
are the easiest tacos you’ll ever make
Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Tacos
I decided not to make Sweet Corn & Zucchini Pie from A Pinch of Yum
since I had made Summer Corn & Zucchini Lasagna
Yet the vegetable pie inspired me to do a round-up
Tomato Pies, Tarts, & Flatbreads
I shared my go to easy dessert recipe Beach Bum Cookie Bars
that will get you out of the kitchen fast!
Happy July!
