If pizza and hot honey had a love child, this dip would be it. Gooey, cheesy layers of marinara, melty mozzarella, zesty pepperoni, and just the right kick of chili flakes—all baked together until bubbly, then finished with a sticky-sweet drizzle of hot honey.

If summer had a signature side, it just might be macaroni salad. This version hits all the comfort food notes: tender elbow pasta, creamy dressing, crisp bites of celery and bell pepper, and a pop of brightness from a little pickle brine and Dijon. It’s rich, tangy, and satisfying without feeling heavy—exactly what you want next to grilled burgers or ribs.

Summer cookouts deserve more than just your average ketchup-and-mustard dog. This hot dog brings the crunch, the heat, and that creamy slaw —all while keeping the grill at the heart of the action.

There’s just something about shrimp tacos that instantly feels like summer. These Baja-Style Shrimp Tacos with Cilantro Lime Slaw take me right back to those perfect nights sitting on patios with friends — laughing too loud, staying out too late, and always ordering "just one more" round of tacos.

Juicy chicken, charred corn, creamy sauce, and fresh toppings packed into soft tortillas — these street corn tacos are perfect for a fun and easy Cinco de Mayo celebration.

This cheesy enchilada skillet is everything I want in a weeknight dinner: hearty, a little spicy, and unapologetically cheesy—with zero fuss and only one pan to clean.

This dish brings alllll the Eastern European comfort vibes — smoky kielbasa, sweet roasted peppers and onions (from frozen, no chopping!), and pillowy pierogi that crisp up in the oven. It’s warm, filling, and a total potato glow-up if you’re tired of the same old roasted spuds.

Potato salad is a BBQ classic, but this version takes it to the next level with the bold, smoky flavors of Mexican street corn (elote)! Grilled corn, roasted potatoes, and a creamy, tangy dressing come together to create the ultimate summer side dish.
