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.

We practically live outside during the summer months. If it isn’t storming, I try to grill just about every dinner we have. From burgers to fruit, there isn’t much I won’t cook on the grill. Of course, every great grilled meal needs a refreshing drink to go along with it so you stay cool. One of our favorite summer drinks is blackberry thyme tea lemonade.

Summer Peach and Prosciutto Pizza

July 1, 2015 By Shannah Coe 16 Comments

It seems like I waited forever this year for our grocery store to get peaches. I doubt it was really any longer than usual but I had a few recipe ideas in mind that required peaches so the wait seemed ridiculous. Finally, our farmer’s market got some gorgeous peaches in and I was able to create the most delicious peach and prosciutto pizza that practically screams “SUMMER” when you eat it.

Watermelon Goat Cheese Salad

April 29, 2015 By Shannah Coe 21 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.

We had our first warm day this past weekend and it was glorious. While still jacket weather because of a light breeze, it was a great reminder that Spring and Summer are on their way and we have lots of sunshine to look forward to. Of course, thoughts of summer got me in the mood for some ice cream. I couldn’t convince Mathlete to go out for ice cream because “it is still March” so I decided to break out my recipe for the easiest no churn ice cream ever!

Key Lime Pear Cocktail

July 31, 2014 By Shannah Coe 1 Comment

You already know wine slushies are popular around our house. For time to time, I like to step outside of the wine game though and enjoy a nice cocktail or, if it is a weekday, a mocktail! When we were in Miami, I tried some of the Cascade Ice Sparkling Waters and was instantly in love. I don’t do the plain water thing so well and need flavors in it for me to actually drink it on a regular basis. The key lime pear version was one of my favorites and I’ve been using it in a key lime pear cocktail ever since.
