Welcome Summer!I know. I just welcomed Spring and that Summer doesn't start until solstice and all that ... but it was a gorgeous weekend and we grilled twice in one day. To me, that's Summer.
As Summer gears up, I'll be making a lot more meals on the fly. The cook-ahead thing works if you want to be in your kitchen. But, I have a garden and many outdoor projects underway. You'll see that a lot more of our meals are based on quick preparation techniques and less cooking ahead.
A * denotes work was done on Sunday, a (f) means the item came out of the freezer.
