Summer Recipes

Summer recipes are all about cooking with fresh seasonal produce, potlucks, and outdoor cooking in the sunshine! Strawberries, blueberries, and peaches are among my favorite fruits. I use as much produce from the garden that I can grow. Plus, smoked and grilled recipes are always a favorite.

Every summer, readers especially love making my Easy Refrigerator Pickles and my Strawberry Rhubarb Jam.
