I love the lazy, stress-free days of summer. I lean towards recipes with a “no fuss- no muss” attitude, easy and not a lot of steps recipes. Summer cooking can be easy and fun. Everyone migrates outside for the longer days, planning lots of potlucks and block parties with our neighbors and friends during the summer. I feel like a block Party hero getting all of my summer needs at Sam’s Club. I want to be spending time with my friends and family and less time in the kitchen. That’s why I created this simple recipe.
