Hi Friends!
This month, the theme I chose was “Fresh Recipes for Summer Fruits & Vegetables”. Pretty much right up my alley, right?! As an RD I’m constantly encouraging people to eat more fruits and veggies and summer is one of the best times to take advantage of local produce. The problem is, sometimes you might go a little crazy at the farmer’s market or get something in your CSA that you’re just not quite sure what to do with.
This is a roundup of 17 delicious ways you can prepare those summer fruits and vegetables! What do you think? See anything that caught your eye?
Let’s chat: What’s your fav summer recipe?! Leave me a link!
Enjoy!

I would eat anything that has cucumber. I have personal experience that this little thing would make the heat away like nothing else.
Ummm…every picture caught my eye! I just love the fresh summer produce!
Oooh! They all look so good that I had to pin this for future cooking!
Well, this past weekend, I made a Chicken Tandoori (esque) Kebab on the grill. And the kebabs had different types of pepper also.
It was super tasty and super easy!
i loooooove summertime fruit!
Everything caught my eye! 🙂
Those rainbow vegetable skewers are GORGEOUS!! I bet even people who are not thrilled about vegetables would enjoy those!
These recipes are great, I always love trying new fruits and veggies in a different way. My favorite summer recipe is a cold bean or pasta salad with fresh veggies, or maybe watermelon feta salad- a must try if you’ve never had it!
I adore the bright colors of those skewers! I’ve been a sucker for summer squash noodles lately. I usually mix it with a bit of pesto or tomato sauce, and they’re just fab for dinner!
I’m loving these foodie posts because I’m able to find out about great recipes easily and quickly. I love your collection!
Everything looks fresh and delicious!
I love fresh summer produce. This summer I’m going to try making gazpacho.
The strawberry jam is calling my name. I love strawberries in the summer time!
This is a wonderful post! I am a pescetarian always looking for ways to class up my veggies and this was the perfect inspiration. Thanks!
yum I will be pinning a few of those! What do you think of my tempeh edamame salad?
