Happy Memorial Day! I am so thankful today for those who gave their lives for our country, as well as a nice long weekend to decompress after our trip last week, and this amazing weather. Apparently the last time it was this warm and sunny over the holiday weekend was back in 1995. We kicked things off with a visit to Wow Wow Lemonade which just opened up a retail location in our town.
It was a perfect day for fresh lemonade (the kids got strawberry pineapple) and I got an acai bowl and everything was DELICIOUS.
The rest of the weekend was equally low key with a play date for the kids, lots of chillin' in the backyard, and reading, of course. (In case you missed it, check out my yearly 10 summer reads!)
To that end, since it is so lovely for backyard grilling, we are forgoing pizza tonight to make some beer brats with fixins.
- Monday - Bratwurst Braised in Beer (then grilled), Coleslaw and Lemony Roasted Potato Salad (a favorite from Bev Cooks)
- Tuesday - Parmesan Chicken with Arugula Salad (an easy and perfect summer recipe from Ina Garten)
- Wednesday - Mac and Cheese with Roasted Broccoli (pulling some of this Pioneer Woman recipe leftovers from the freezer)
- Thursday - Sriracha Teriyaki Meatball Bowls with Ground Chicken (from Baker by Nature)
- Friday - Turkey and Black Bean Enchiladas (a favorite from Skinnytaste)
- Saturday - Seven Flavor Beef (a Saturday night staple recipe from local favorite Wild Ginger)
- Sunday - Mexican Cesar Salad (trying this new recipe from Gimme Some Oven)
As always, I'm linking up with Org Junkie Menu Plan Monday - be sure to check out all the great weekly food inspiration!
