Melissa’s Summer Dinner Formula, Plus 12 Fresh Recipes (click the title to read the blog!)

I’ve found that as the weather heats up, there is a shift in my cooking. As opposed to winter cooking – which is focused around the meat I’m cooking that night – in the summertime, I find myself creating meals based around vegetables, and keeping my protein uber-simple.

2 or 3 veggie dishes + simply grilled protein + quinoa, rice or a crusty loaf of bread.

I also provide 12 veggie recipes so that you can give my formula a try!
