Welcome to the weekend, my friends! I’m planning to get out for a walk, read my book, cook and photograph some new dishes, and work on a puzzle with my boys. Nothing too exciting for anyone else, but it all sounds lovely to me right now. I hope that your weekend is filled with many of your favorite things too!
ON THE BLOGS THIS WEEK: Supercharge your cookout side dish game with this dill pickle potato salad. Classic tender potato salad gets a glow-up with scandalous amounts of dill pickles, pickle relish, pickle seasonings, and hard-boiled eggs.
This creamy corn with jalapeno will be your new cookout side dish go-to. The sweet pop of fresh corn is enrobed in a rich, creamy cheese and jalapeno sauce and pairs beautifully with just about anything you can cook on your grill from steaks to chicken to pork and beyond!
While zucchini isn’t usually a vegetable most folks crave, these zucchini fries are about to change that! Tender zucchini wedges are coated in a crunchy, crispy, utterly crave-worthy Parmesan breadcrumb coating to create these zucchini fries.
Buttery, tender, sweet yeast rolls are bursting with juicy blueberries and tart lemon glaze in these blueberry sweet rolls. They are a perfect weekend baking project.
Blueberry peach cobbler bursts with juicy, fresh peaches and the sweet pop of blueberries under a tender, golden brown cobbler crust. This homey, comforting dessert takes no time to whip up and tastes like pure summer.
Good luck resisting snickers ice cream: peanut butter ice cream swirled with luscious caramel sauce, and bursting with pieces of snickers bars. Sometimes you just need to indulge yourself!
Mock apple pie began as a thrifty way to make a sweet treat from pantry staples in the late 1800s. I served this pie to my husband a few nights ago and he loved it. The look on his face was priceless when I later told him there was no fruit in it. The flavor is reminiscent of a combination of pecan pie and apple pie and the whole family agrees it is delicious.
