Char’s Go-To Summer Recipe Round-Up

I LOVE the thick of summertime. The heat. Ice cream becoming its own food group. The fab fresh local produce: watermelon, peaches, cherries, blueberries, not to mention the loads of veg grown right here in Ontario! I LOVE it all!!

To celebrate everything summer has to offer, I put together a list of my fave go-to summer dishes/recipes. Note: recipes are listed in no particular order.

Let me know if you recreate one (or more!!) of these dishes. Shoot me an email here: [email protected]
