I recently starting doing Bountiful Baskets (a fresh fruits & veggie co-op) and we have had so many delicious fruits & veggies. It’s been perfect for the summer because one of my favorite things about summer is grilling and dining al fresco.
Tonight we had to use up lots of our veggies before they went bad so I made a simple, healthy and delicious chicken kabobs. We used onions, bell peppers, portobella mushrooms and chicken. We seasoned half with a little olive oil and nature’s seasoning and the other half with a raspberry chipotle marinade. Serve with a little whole wheat couscous and you have a healthy and delicious meal. We finally started getting some cherry tomatoes from our garden so I threw in a few of those as well.
I also needed to use up some of our fruit so I made fruit parfaits with strawberries, peaches and raspberries. Then I add a dollop of cool whip and fresh mint to finish them off. Yummy!
I love simple summertime recipes! What’s your favorite summer recipe?

I just started getting the Bountiful Baskets too! I'm very impressed with the quality of food. Thank you for sharing some ideas of what I can do with all this food before it goes bad!

This is our second year doing a CSA through a local Amish farmer and we love it!
Your kebabs look so good!
Anything strawberry would be my favorite!
