The Weekend Dish: 8/3/2019
Well hello there August, how did you get here so fast?!
I feel like we were just at Josephโs end-of-year school picnic, thinking about all of the fun things we were going to do over the summer, and now here we areโฆ a couple of weeks until vacation, then we get back and are thrust right into school orientation and first days, etc. These days just fly!

As always, you'll find a recap of what was posted to the site this week, the most shared recipes, my Sunday dinner menu, and recipes I've bookmarked from other blogs. Enjoy!

I have a bag of frozen salmon in the freezer, so Iโm putting this on our menu ASAP >> BBQ salmon bowls with mango avocado salsa
Absolutely obsessed with this blueberry basque cheesecake.

And thinking of maybe making an easy peach cobbler for dessert tomorrow.
Have a delicious weekend!
Ooooh, good idea w chicken. I dont think Iโve had mango and avocado together before but I really adore avocados and have a new like of mangoesโฆa later in life like. Sounds yummy for a Summer dish to make. Definitely going to do this peach cobbler you posted. Wish I had some made right now. I have the vanilla icecream, just missing the cobbler๐
Made the BBQ salmon with Mango Salsaโฆdefinitely make it this week! ย Iโve also made it and subbed in chicken breast. Itโs delicious, refreshing & light for the hot days that remain of summer. Happy vacation!
