    Chef Speedy can you help a girl out? What's for dinner at your place this weekend? I need some ideas?

    Also do you have any pressure cooker tips? I'm a wuss and don't know where to begin.

    Thanks!

    Summertime!
    Its all about the grilling.
    Throw some steaks, burgers, chicken, etc. on the grill.
    Roast some fresh veggies. Maybe throw a nice cheese sauce or a hollandaise sauce on the veggies.
    Make a nice salad, with plenty of fresh veggies, and whatever dressing you prefer.
    Don't forget the summer fruit, melons, peaches, nectarines, plums, cheeries, etc. Kathy makes a great fruit salad with strawberries, blueberries, cool whip, and angel food cake.

    But its all about the grilling.
    Tonight its simple for me.
    Ribeyes on the grill
    Roasted cauliflower
    Salad with romaine lettuce, tomatoes from the garden, peppers from the garden.
    Sweet corn
    Baked potato with chives from the garden.
    Take me piece by piece.....

    Never done anything with a pressure cooker. I have no clue.

    Lately we have been doing a lot of turkey burgers on the grill. We spice them up with seasoning, some hot sauce, and believe it or not some shredded carrots. We mix it all together, make some patties, and throw them on the grill. When most people think of turkey burgers, they think of dried up YUCK! But these turn out moist and delicious. I top off with some cheese, low-fat mayo, tomato slice, and a pickle.

    If you want to go to a website that has TONS of great recipes, and is a little on the healthier side.
    Check out skinnytaste

    My wife and I have made a dozen or so recipes from there, and each and everyone of them has been terrific. They have a lot of recipes for the crock pot (slow cooker), that my wife ends up taking to work, for her lunches, for the entire week. Lots of pulled chicken, and pulled pork recipes. Stuff to throw over rice or noodles.

    Plus it just has Summer written all over it.

    You know what really sucks about not having a grill? (Or even the option to have a grill)
    Corn on the grill is about a million times better than corn any other way.

    And when grilling steaks or chicken?
    Always sauté some mushrooms, for a side dish.
    Mix and match several varieties, or just go with your favorite.

    So a good friend of mine, and his family, went apple picking last week. I was given 25 or so apples.

    I have made apple butter. DELICIOUS!
    And I am making an apple pie, as I type this.

    WOO HOO!
