Favorite Summer Dinner Recipes

My team and I gathered 20+ Summer Dinner Recipe Ideas to keep your supper
menu fresh, tasty, and fun all season long. Luckily the following recipes don’t
take too much time or effort, because no one wants to stand over the stove when
the temperature rises.

The recipes collected on this page highlight the season’s flavors like
garden-fresh zucchini and tomatoes, fragrant basil, and hot-off-the-grill burgers.

Speaking of the grill, honey chipotle salmon and black bean burgers are top
choices. The black bean burgers are loved by both non-meat eaters and meat
eaters alike. I usually serve them alongside corn on the cob, zucchini fritters, or
zucchini casserole.
