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.

Pickle Potato Salad

You can use any potato you like to make this potato salad. However, I like to use thin-skinned Yukon Gold potatoes. There’s no need to peel them and the texture stays nice for the salad.

If you use new or white potatoes, you don’t need to peel those either. However, if you choose to use a russet or red potato, you’ll want to peel the potatoes for the best results.

Potato Salad with Dill and Pickles

You’ll need the following ingredients for the recipe:

• Yukon Gold potatoes
• mayonnaise
• dill pickle relish
• dried dill
• salt and pepper
• baby dill pickles
• hard-boiled eggs
• green onions
• fresh dill OPTIONAL

We enjoy a good amount of hard-boiled eggs in our potato salads. If you prefer fewer eggs, or not to have a bit of egg in every bite, feel free to reduce the number of eggs for your tastes.

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.

Peach Blueberry Cobbler

Nothing will ever beat the experience of biting into a super ripe summer peach and having the juice run down your chin, but this blueberry peach cobbler is a pretty close second.

This cobbler captures the essence of the best of summer produce under a puffy, tender, sweet cobbler crust. Peaches and blueberries are delightful on their own, but combined, they’re even greater than the already appreciable sum of their parts.

It can be served warm or room temperature with a scoop of the most perfect homemade ice cream or a glug of fresh cream. Or it can be served cold, scooped into a bowl for breakfast or even straight from the refrigerator spoonful by furtive spoonful as a midnight snack.

Citrus Greek Chicken [+ Video]

Simple marinated citrus Greek chicken with a two ingredient sauce. It’s perfect all year round and you only need one skillet to make dinner in 30 minutes!

Marinated chicken is where it’s at! Whether it’s our simple marinated grilled chicken breasts or our smoked marinated chicken thighs, marinating chicken adds so much flavor and tenderness. The marinade for this citrus Greek chicken packs this recipe with outrageous flavor and is so simple!

This citrus Greek chicken looks like something you’d be served in your favorite restaurant, but it’s the easiest recipe ever. However, I’ve got rules so listen up!

Tips for the Best Citrus Greek Chicken

Boneless, skinless chicken breasts should not be overcooked. Ever. Here’s a really simple way to have perfectly cooked, perfectly moist chicken every single time.

I cringe when I hear about chicken breasts in the oven for an hour or a half hour on the stove top. Please, please don’t do that. Your dinners will be 100 times better if you cook the chicken properly.

Marinated meat is an easy way to have flavor without extra calories or effort, but it must have time. We like to marinate our chicken at least two hours or up to overnight. You pick what works for you.

And finally, oil packed sun dried tomatoes should always be in your fridge. They are amazing. The end.

Ingredients for Citrus Greek Chicken

I’m going to list the ingredients for the chicken marinade first, and then the simple 2 ingredient sauce that we will use to pour over the chicken. Here is what you will need:

• Chicken Breasts: boneless, skinless
• Olive Oil: help tenderize the chicken as it marinates
• Orange Juice: If you have the time, juice your own oranges so you have pure fresh orange juice without any added sugar.
• Greek Seasoning: We prefer McCormick brand, but if you like a different brand or want to make you’re own, we’ve included a recipe below.
• Salt: adds flavor
• Pepper: adds flavor
• Garlic: adds flavor

For the Sauce

• Packed Sun-dried Tomatoes: adds texture, flavor and color to the chicken
• Orange Juice: adds bright citrus flavor to the chicken as it cooks

The measurements for all of the ingredients can be found in the recipe card at the end of this post.

Welcome to the weekend, my friends! Our little village pulls out all the stops for the 4th of July with a street fair set up downtown for most of the week. It’s always a lot of fun, and we usually have friends or family visiting too, but when it’s over we’re all ready to get back to regular life.

I’m looking forward to a week filled with everyday routines, walks outside, and plenty of sunshine! (Fun fact – I caught a glimpse of the haying that was happening in the field behind our house this week. I had NO idea that hay bales were so big! I walked out to the field and was in awe of the size. They made the tractors look like toys.)

ON THE BLOGS THIS WEEK:  This BLT salad is fully loaded with crunchy romaine lettuce, sweet tomatoes and fresh corn, salty bacon, rich and creamy avocado slices, cubed cheddar cheese, crunchy croutons, and the perfect ranch dressing.

Sweet corn, ripe bell peppers, red onion, and jalapenos are seasoned with a medley of aromatic spices and a touch of fresh cilantro to make each spoonful of this fiesta corn a fabulous blend of flavors. True to its name, it tastes like a party!

If you want to learn how to roast corn, you’ve come to the right place! Roasting corn concentrates its sweetness. Served with a pat of butter, roasted corn takes me right back to childhood.

Avocados, chicken, corn, and black beans pair well with a blend of southwestern spices for a quick Mexican flavor-inspired chicken lettuce wrap.

Lemon blueberry bread is soft, moist, and generously filled with blueberries and bright lemon flavor. This is a quick and easy bread recipe everyone will love.

Soft, chewy and just barely crisp on the edges chocolate chip macadamia nut cookies are memorably good. This is one of my favorite cookie combinations. There is no bad time of day (or even year!) for cookies. And these cookies? You’re going to want them all day (and year) long.

If you’re a fan of root beer floats -and who isn’t?- you’re going to go wild for this root beer ice cream. This is a summer treat that could fast become a family favorite!

What I’m CRAVING: Watermelon! Just give me all the watermelon. It’s that time of year and I can’t get enough of it. Typically, I just want a simple bowl filled with bites of watermelon, maybe with a sprinkling of salt. But this week I turned that craving into a brand new salad, and I can’t get enough
