What to Cook This June

Hooray for June! The sun is shining and I’m looking forward to summertime activities with Grace. I’ve been brainstorming fun recipes for summer produce (my favorite) and working on our garden lately.

Since I reach for fresh chives so often when cooking scrambled eggs, I’m also growing some herbs by the window. I found this narrow planter (affiliate link) that has a water reservoir at the bottom. So far, so good! Herbs are so thirsty!

This month, seasonal produce options are expanding to include fresh fruit like blueberries and strawberries, rhubarb and cherries. I think I’ll make a crisp soon. The only question is which kind—blueberry, mixed berry or strawberry rhubarb? Asparagus and spring peas are on their way out, so get your fill of them while you can.

“Another dinner success! This was surprisingly tasty. I honestly passed this up thinking “eh” but then my friends had a fiesta dinner and I was dying for an excuse not to eat their steak or ground beef tacos so I made the refried beans for my tacos. Tonight I made the avocado sauce and pickled onions with it….YUM. And super easy!!” – Erin
