I’ve been a lot more inspired to bake lately and am really looking forward to doing some seasonal baking projects this summer.
- Angel food cake {done!}
- Peach crisp/cobbler
- Jam
- Strawberry pie
- Berry crisp/cobbler {done!}
- Lemon bars
- Ice cream
- Coffee cake {berry or peach}
- Strawberry shortcake
- Apple crisp
I’ll be honest, summer is not my favorite time of year to cook. Come mid-July {hello!} I’m ready for fall foods. I so prefer cooking hearty meals. That being said, you really can’t beat the fresh produce available in the summer. A few of my favorite savory summer meals that I’m so looking forward to include:
- Panzanella!!!!! I just can’t wait. My favorite way to enjoy my favorites – tomatoes, basil, bread, mozzarella, olive oil and balsamic
- All the buratta – basically a caprese salad with buratta and maybe a baguette
- Pioneer Woman’s Smoked Gouda Pasta Salad – already on major repeat over here
- Grilled pizza
- Watermelon, feta & mint salad
- Bring on the BLTs {actually, I make BATs}
- All of the nectarines
- And all of the tomatoes
