Melon Prosciutto Crostini

June 28, 2016 By Shannah Coe Leave a Comment

Ok, summer is definitely here. We are rocking 80+ temperatures every day and the farmer’s market and grocery store are filled with delicious items like summer melons. With the warmer weather and the longer days, we are doing a lot more “entertaining” {I use that term lightly because it is really me just putting out food and everyone hanging out} and so I am always looking for quick and easy recipes to throw together. Combine fresh summer melon with cheese and prosciutto for an easy appetizer that can’t be beat.

Watermelon Goat Cheese Salad

April 29, 2015 By Shannah Coe 22 Comments

Our local farmer’s market opened this past weekend. I was super psyched because it means warmer weather is here for awhile and I can get lots of fresh fruits and vegetables easily. I shared this recipe over on Allyson’s blog during her much deserved maternity break last year. I wanted to share it here too {in case you missed it there} so you could pick up a watermelon on your next shopping trip and enjoy this watermelon goat cheese salad. Of course, watermelon is one of THE summer fruits so you can make this salad all summer long.

Vanilla Pancakes with Blueberries

July 24, 2014 By Shannah Coe 3 Comments

A classic pancake can’t be beat for breakfast or brunch! This puts a fun twist on classic pancakes to create vanilla pancakes with blueberries: a dish that is out of this world delicious!

Have you noticed that so many things these days seem to be some crazy concoction of flavors? I was out the other day and saw strawberry caramel chocolate pretzel flavored ice cream. Now, I love all of the flavors sure and do enjoy some flavors mixed together {salted caramel or strawberry lemonade anyone?}. But, sometimes I feel like more traditional flavors like vanilla get a bad rap. They get labeled as boring or plain. Well, I’m going to #TakeBackVanilla and it starts with these delicious vanilla pancakes and blueberries.

Grilled Fruit Kabobs

It is only mid-June but I’ve talked a lot about how I like to cook on the grill already. So, it is probably no surprise that today’s recipe is for grilled fruit kabobs. These grilled fruit kabobs are special though because they are basted with a citrus mint glaze while they are grilled which gives them an extra punch of flavor.

Red, White and Blue No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

I love July 4th! Not only because I love our country but also because of all the fun events, decor and food that incorporates our national colors of red, white and blue. This red, white and blue no bake cheesecake recipe came about as I was racking my brain trying to decide what to make for Memorial Day {same colors and all}. I didn’t end up making it for that BBQ but got to playing around with the recipe later the next week with July 4th firmly planted in my head as inspiration.
