It’s grilling season—time for fresh flavors, easy dinners, and plenty of outdoors cooking.
This week’s lineup features grilled mains, vibrant salads, hand-tossed pizza and playful tacos—some of my favorite go-tos for warm-weather meals.
What are you planning to make this week?
What To Eat This Week
Crispy chicken caesar salad
Crispy baked cheeseburger tacos
Caramelized onion potato chip frittata
Spinach and artichoke skillet lasagna
Grilled chicken and avocado orzo
Pistachio pesto pizza
Pickle lovers’ egg salad
Pistachio coconut oatmeal
Each recipe brings something different: crisp textures, bold seasonings, and straightforward techniques that work on the grill, in a skillet, or from the oven. Pair your mains with a simple side salad, charred vegetables, or a cooling yogurt dip to balance smoky flavors. For quick weeknight dinners, the tacos and grilled orzo are fast and satisfying; the frittata and lasagna are comforting make-ahead options that reheat beautifully.
To keep meals fresh all week, prep toppings and dressings in advance, toast nuts for extra crunch, and chop vegetables the night before. If you’re firing up the grill, oil the grates well and give proteins a quick rest after cooking to retain juices. For pizza, use a high heat and a hot stone or grill surface for blistered crust and melty cheese.
Enjoy the variety—mix and match these dishes across lunches and dinners. Whether you’re hosting friends or feeding a family, these recipes deliver on flavor and simplicity.
