3 things: This is citrus herb marinated grilled chicken. I think you guys should be friends! I might have a first grader (?!?!!!) who heads back to school tomorrow, and we did beach-plus-Dairy-Queen last night in a way that felt a little like goodbye, but SUMMER IS NOT OVER and bright citrus-y chicken with a…

Soy Sauce & Honey Marinated Flank Steak.
For some reason, flank steak had fallen out of our rotation. A couple of months ago, I bought some on a whim at Costco, and that night all the stars aligned, and the combination of sweet and savory flank steak, a baked sweet potato, and roasted broccoli was a freaking home run.

Crispy Cheesy Grilled Potatoes.

(Check out this adorable free printable for Father’s Day!) She’s also one of the best sources if you need some encouragement in your…
Smothered Maple Turkey Burgers (with caramelized onions & apples).
So – turkey burgers. They’re a fairly polarizing food, I’ve found. In fact, I used to be on the “wait, why isn’t this beef?” team. My 6th-grade self is rather infamous with good family friends for being appalled to discover the burger I was served at their house was made of – turkey. I had honestly…
