Summer foods should be fresh and easy, right? My favorite part of summer cooking is that I can make Chad grill the meat, and all that’s left for me to do is throw together a vegetable, a salad, and maybe some bread or noodles for the kids. This works even when you’re entertaining-we’re going to a friends’ house tonight for a little get together and they’re grilling the meat and everyone else is bringing a side or a salad. Summer fun at its simple best. I’m in charge of the green salad, so I spent some time looking up fun recipes to try because I wanted something a little exciting but not too tricky. There were so many good ones to choose from, that I thought I would share them for our Festive Fridays this week. - Eloise
