Hello weekend — nice to see you.
On the blog this week I shared a crunchy broccoli slaw that’s the perfect side, along with a buttery Old Bay crab mac and cheese, a festive red, white and pickled blueberry burrata, and my summer 2022 reading list. I use this reading list year-round and it’s one of my favorite roundups to share.
There’s a new weekly menu available, and I also posted a peek at a week in our life if you want a little behind-the-scenes.
You can order a copy of Everyday Dinners now — it’s currently on a major sale. Consider grabbing a few copies as gifts while the price holds. Once you have your book, join the Everyday Dinners Cookbook Club on Facebook. We just started a new challenge this week; the club has been going strong since The Pretty Dish launched in 2018 and it’s always so much fun. I love seeing your recreations on Instagram and in the cookbook club. Join in to enjoy the challenges and giveaways.

What I’m Loving This Week
The most perfect chocolate cheesecake — rich, decadent, and irresistible.
Strawberry lemonade bars that look bright, tart, and perfect for warm days.
I’m a huge fan of crispy smashed potatoes — comforting, crunchy, and addictive.
Green chili cheeseburgers are my kind of win: juicy, spicy, and loaded with flavor.
A simple coconut sheet cake is one of those nostalgic treats I always come back to.
Egg in a bagel hole with cheese and prosciutto is such a clever, savory idea for breakfast or brunch.
Vegan burrito bowls that are filling, colorful, and packed with plant-based goodness.
Marshmallow lava cake — unexpected and delightfully gooey.
Antipasto skewers make entertaining easy and elegant.
Blueberry French toast casserole is an indulgent, fruit-forward brunch favorite.
The prettiest fruit salad, full of color and simple fresh flavor.
And a vibrant Mexican fruit salad for when you want something bright, spicy, and refreshing.
