Happy final day of July to all reading this. I hope your summer has been full of long sunny days at the pool and beach with your families. There are still a few weeks left to soak it all in. I’m writing from a sandy beach currently, as my kids are jumping in the waves.
Since I’m technically on vacation, the recipes this week are simple yet delicious. Perfect for a beach or pool day, or a backyard party—I have been making both on repeat lately.
The first is a refreshing cucumber salad, made a bit heartier by adding in chickpeas. You could also add tomato, mozzarella or feta, or some red onion for a Mediterranean vibe.
The other recipe is a perfect beach sandwich, although I make it for my kids as a quick dinner as well. Pesto spread on Italian bread makes a perfect layer for salty prosciutto and creamy mozzarella.
That’s all for this week—I hope you try both recipes and come follow me on Instagram to see what else I’m up to. Also check out my Amazon kitchen favorites here.
