The Summer Issue of RecipeLion is Waiting!

Summer can only mean one thing. It’s time to get grilling! [Food Gardening Network Preview]( June 2, 2023  [The Grill is Hot]( Summer can only mean one thing. It’s time to get grilling! [Magazine Cover] Gain full access to this premium magazine issue—and an entire Library of food gardening advice—with a [Charter Gold Membership in Food Gardening Network!]( Dear Barbecue Superstar, Charcoal or propane? Campfire or top-of-the-line Weber grill? Personally, I’m happy to be outside grilling no matter what. You just can’t beat the taste of a meal made on the grill. That goes for the expected, like vegetables, fish, and beef; but it goes for the unexpected, too. Have you tried watermelon on the grill? Or fresh corn? How about a head of Romaine lettuce? That’s good eatin’! Let’s not forget the sides, either. The pasta salads and casserole dishes are divine! Drinks, too! An icy beverage is heaven in a glass on those hot sunny days when the humidity is curling your hair. Indeed, summer is a truly happy time for a cook! If you can’t tell, I’m excited about this issue of RecipeLion Magazine! From pre-dinner drinks to sides to sizzling summer suppers and even campfire desserts, you’ll find more than two dozen recipes in this issue that highlight the versatility of the grill. Here’s a sample of some of the dishes on the menu for this issue of RecipeLion Magazine: [Grilled Tuna Steaks with Grape and Caper Salsa] These Scintillating Summer Suppers are made for the grill, but don’t let a rainy day stop you. They’re easy to make indoors on the stovetop, too. The key here is to use garden-fresh vegetables and herbs whenever possible. These dishes are simple, but packed with flavor. Here are some of the recipes in this section. - Grilled Eggplant Marinade with Garlic and Basil: With a marinade of grated garlic, chopped fresh basil, freshly ground black pepper, and olive oil, you know you’re in for a treat. Even better, grilled eggplant is smoky and so tender it melts in your mouth. This is an easy recipe that you’ll want to make over and over! - Grilled Tuna Steaks with Grape and Caper Salsa: Just like beef steak, you can enjoy tuna in different degrees of doneness, opening up your palate to a whole gamut of tastes and textures. And the capers and grapes add a refreshing and elegant touch that delights the taste buds. - Spicy Lime Grilled Tequila Chicken: Tangy, smoky, and slightly sweet, this grilled chicken recipe is perfect for soft tacos or served with rice for an easy and healthy weeknight dinner.

They can be little snacks or full-on meals by themselves. The 7 recipes in Party Perfect Side Dishes cover a lot of ground. You’ll find a few that might be surprising, like the Grilled Watermelon Salad, but there are some classics here, too. A few recipes include: - Grilled Watermelon Salad: This sweet, quintessential summer fruit is a great candidate for grilling when you’re hosting a backyard get-together. Aside from being an eye-catcher with its vibrant colors, this Grilled Watermelon Salad is a sure crowd-pleaser as it combines the fruit’s natural sweetness with an ensemble of complimentary flavors that bring out the absolute best in this dish. - Grilled Asparagus with Parmesan: If you ask me, asparagus is the defining vegetable of spring and early summer. It’s juicy, sweet, tender, and depending on where you live, might only be available for a few weeks. That’s why I love this recipe. There’s not much to it, just asparagus, Parmesan, olive oil, salt, and pepper; but it’s absolutely rapturous! - Lemon Sage Pasta Salad: Homegrown veggies can seem a lot sweeter because they’re fresh, but the citrusy combo of sage and lemons balances the sweetness out. Parmesan cheese gives this dish an added salty touch, while the butter and olive oil brighten up the colorful ensemble. [Limoncello Sunrise] Cooking out is always a special occasion, but throw in a few special drink recipes and it’s more special than ever! We have a few snazzy drink recipes included in our Fresh Fruity Fusions that I adore and I think you’ll love, too! - Cucumber Gimlet(ish): When you’re in the mood for a refreshing summer cocktail, this is it. This blend of homemade cucumber mint vodka, tangy lime simple syrup, and thirst-quenching fresh cucumber juice is a combination that dances on the tongue and makes the world a better place. - Limoncello Sunrise: This refreshing tropical garden-to-glass cocktail, Limoncello Sunrise, combines homemade limoncello, orange juice, and homemade grenadine. - Herbal Dill Lemonade: There’s nothing like a glass of freshly-squeezed lemonade to make a hot summer day better. Unless it’s a glass of herbal dill lemonade. This invigorating taste sensation is a treat that’s sure to revive you when the summer sun is beating down. [Layered S’mores Casserole] What would a cookout be without some good old-fashioned S’mores? The recipes in Campfire Confections are ideal for those nights when the stars are twinkling overhead and the vast universe seems to be calling to us. But hey! No one said you can’t roast some marshmallows over the charcoals in your suburban backyard grill! These recipes will taste superb either way. I promise! - Peanut Butter S’mores: Just when you thought s’mores couldn’t get any better, along comes creamy peanut butter to the mix. Chocolate and peanut butter is a classic flavor combo, and only gets better with marshmallows toasted over an open campfire. And there are some fun and funky variations on this that you won’t want to miss! - Layered S’mores Casserole: You’re right. S’mores and casserole aren’t usually something you put together. But I have to tell you, the flaky, buttery crust, melty marshmallows, sweet chocolate, and the crunch of baked graham crackers is surprisingly delightful! Plus, this decadent desert is perfect for family gatherings or a sleepover. I hope you enjoy this issue of RecipeLion Magazine, and find a beautiful, sunny day to try out some of these recipes!
