It’s been a hot minute since I’ve been down by the Cape, where community clambakes can be a pretty common event throughout the Summertime. Everyone brings some seafood and/or a side, maybe some drinks depending on the crowd- and you gather around to cook the food together in a fire pit and enjoy each other’s […]
It’s about that time of year where I embrace easy, crowd pleasing and cookout-friendly recipes- be it main courses, satisfying sides, or light and refreshing desserts and beverages. I am all in on everything grilled, tossed or loaded with citrus this time of year- and I thought I’d kick off my Summer 2022 recipe series […]
Although it’s still a little early in the year to steadily and consistently grill outdoors for backyard BBQs or cookouts- that hasn’t stopped myself or my friends from preparing dishes to get us feeling more seasonal with every nice, sunny and warm day we have here in New England!

Seeing how my friends and family arrange their own take on the trend is always fun, too- ranging anywhere from simple and […]
Although Memorial Day isn’t for another week- I thought I’d get the Summertime/outdoor grilling recipes started a little early with a quick and easy, beer-infused lunch (or dinner!) dish that is sure to be a favorite among your freshly-vaccinated friends and family at your next gathering! While I’m a big fan of the traditional hamburgers […]
In the Summertime, I love grilling fruits and vegetables. There’s just something so satisfying about grilled pineapple and watermelon skewers with some feta added in for good measure- or some grilled onions and peppers to throw on top of a freshly prepared and juicy cheeseburger. Here in New England- grilling outdoors is an activity that’s […]
Making a BLT isn’t exactly a challenge and doesn’t require any significant level of skill. It’s three basic, core ingredients and mayonnaise (if you prefer) spread out on some bread or a roll.
