The kids are headed back to school and stores might be filling up with Halloween decorations, but summer isn't over! Enjoy all the beautiful tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, juicy strawberries, summer squash, and sweet corn while you still can!

Fresh Summer Recipes

​Strawberry Caprese Pasta Salad​

Strawberries, pasta, and mozzarella, tossed in a bright dressing, make a fresh, delicious salad that tastes of summer!

​Zucchini Squash Casserole​

Squash is layered into a cast iron, topped with a crunchy, cheesy crust, and then drizzled with a light butter sauce.

​Fresh Tomato Salad​

Enjoy the last of the summer tomatoes and toss them with red onions, basil and a simple dressing couldn’t be easier to make.

​Mexican Street Corn Pasta Salad​

The combination of sweet, charred corn and a creamy, tangy dressing screams summer to me!

​Zucchini Bread​

Loaded with tender zucchini and the warm flavors of cinnamon and vanilla with the nuttiness from pistachios.

​Cheesy Pesto Tomato Pie​

The summer recipe worth making every single week with layers of fresh tomatoes, basil pesto, sweet onion, and a golden cheese topping.

​Pickled Sweet Corn​

Made with fresh corn, sweet red onions, spicy jalapenos, and cilantro, it makes a great topping for grilled meats, burgers, tacos, and salads.

A refreshing drink, with or without tequila to enjoy at any summer party, BBQ, or when you’re relaxing while watching the sun set.
