Summer Dinner Recipes

The menus in this section were designed using my family’s favourite summer dinner recipes.

The recipes in the summer dinner menu are mostly for the barbeque. We do not have air-conditioning in our house; therefore I try not to use the stove or oven too much in the heat. Besides who doesn’t love spending most of their time outside in the summer? My family definitely does!

There is so much going on in the summer that I usually do not cook everyday, so I decided to make the menus for only 5 days instead of the whole week.

Each week’s menu contains five main dishes and a shopping list. The side dishes are not included with the menus or shopping lists. It is up to you to decide on the side dishes that you like.

To fully benefit from the weekly menus follow these steps:

1. Choose your weekly menu

2. Print the recipes (most recipes serve 4 unless otherwise noted)

3. Print the shopping list

4. Check the shopping list and cross off the ingredients you already have at home

5. Add your choice of side dishes onto the list

6. Head to the grocery store

7. Enjoy stress free dinners!

8. Return a week later for your next week’s menu

9. Repeat steps 1-8
