currently crushing on I howsweeteats.com

Hi! Happy Saturday — I hope you’re enjoying this long holiday weekend. We kicked off ours with an impromptu zoo visit yesterday and had such a wonderful time. I love spending these weekends with our little family.

Last night I updated a number of items in my SHOP — I added favorites on sale, a few things I’m loving for Max, and lots of beauty picks. I’ll share my beauty favorites later this weekend, so stay tuned.

Below I’m sharing 10 favorite recipes perfect for this special weekend. Enjoy!

What are your plans? Anything fun on the calendar? Hope you have a great one!

What I’m loving this week:

These honey pork loaded fries sound amazing.

Lilac syrup—absolutely divine.

Could this be the most epic chicken burger? It sure looks like it.

Craving poblano skillet enchiladas for sure.

Are piña colada pool pop tarts a real thing? Apparently yes, and I want one.

This cocktail inspired by Mackenzie-Childs looks so fun.

Pineapple punch with ginger beer—wow.

A copycat In-N-Out burger that looks worth making.

Greek yogurt cheesecake—lighter and irresistible.

A blooming strawberry plant-based cheesecake that’s beautiful and impressive.

Chicken satay with a light almond dipping sauce sounds perfect for dinner.

Who wouldn’t want a creamy broccoli salad for a picnic this weekend?

I’m definitely trying this DIY ginger brew soon.

Cherry frosé—say it with me: cherry frosé!
