Father’s Day Dinner Ideas

38 shares

What are you cooking for Father’s Day? Are you looking for some Father’s Day Dinner Ideas? I’m not sure what our plans are for the day, but if we’re at home, and I’m cooking, I have no doubt that my husband, and all the men in my life (son-in-laws, nephews, friends), would enjoy a menu that looked something like this!!Father's Day Menu

Grilled CHIMICHURRI STEAK is always a favorite. I’ve never met a man that doesn’t like it!  And, a man meal without GARLIC BREAD is kind of like a day without sunshine. It’s just not right. There are so many salads to choose from, like my CAESAR SALAD w/HOMEMADE CROUTONS or maybe my MANGO SALAD. For this Father’s Day meal, anyone one of those salads would be great. In fact, if I was serving a large crowd, I’d make one of the green salads and also my POTATO SALAD. Well, and who doesn’t love a good CAPRESE SALAD. And, GRILLED ASPARAGUS because I’m sure they’ll be a few ladies around too, and they’re always a favorite amongst my family and friends.

I hope you’ve found some inspiration for Father’s Day or any other summertime BBQ. This is a menu inspiration that is sure to please a crowd of any size.

Oooops, I almost forgot about dessert……

Check out this amazing DAD Cake from I Am Baker.

Dad Cake

Here’s a quick BERRY SHORTCAKE idea that is simple and delicious!! Save some time in the kitchen so you can join Dad in a grueling game of Spike Ball, Corn Hole, or just relax by the pool!!

Or, my favorite dessert idea for Father’s Day is a Root Beer Float made with DADs Rootbeer!!

Happy Father’s Day to the men in my life and yours!!

I walked into Trader Joe’s the other day (with my granddaughter), and she quickly spotted a sign about their milkshake contest! “We have to do this Nana!” How could I say no to her enthusiasm as she quickly chose her shake ingredients. 
You’ll have to head over to her page @gigibeanblog to see what flavor she decided on. 
🍑🥤🍦🍑🍦🥤🍑
I decided on a Peach Ginger Shake! The rules state that you must use only five ingredients that you purchased at TJ’s and post your recipe. 
🍑🍦🥤🍑🥤🍦🍑
Peach and Ginger Shake
* 1 pint Southern Peach Crisp ice cream
* 1 fresh peach (peeled, sliced, & frozen)
* 1/4 cup milk
* Whipped cream
* Ginger Snap cookies (crushed)
Place ice cream, frozen peach slices, & milk into blender and blend until smooth. Pour into your favorite milkshake glass, top with whipped cream, and crushed ginger snaps. Garnish with fresh peach slices and additional cookies! Enjoy!!

Nothing says summertime like backyard fun! Swimming, slip & slides, sprinklers, and a big glass of cold lemonade!! I hope you’re all enjoying your summer! What’s the weather like where you live? We’ve been traveling for the last week, and I have to admit, that although I love the heat and summer sunshine, I’m not used to humidity (we’ve been in FL, the gulf coast area, and TN). I’m usually the first to complain when our coastal CA fog rolls in, but I’m actually looking forward to cooler temps for a few days.

This simple Orzo Salad is the perfect side dish for anything you plan to grill! It’s also a delicious salad to bring to family gatherings or potlucks! And the best part is I use my favorite bottled balsamic dressing, so it’s both easy to make and delicious!

Back when our girls were younger, we used to host large backyard bbqs on the 4th of July. We’d easily host 100+ friends and family and everyone would enjoy swimming, basketball, trampoline, fireworks, and of course a lot of good food!! I always made my Baked Beans! Always! They may not be the prettiest dish, but they are delicious! You can find the recipe link in my profile.

I’m visiting with my daughter and her family this week, and as usual they give me their dinner requests. I love that they (especially my son-in-law) love my cooking!! One of the requests this week was Bruschetta Chicken! It’s easy to make, tastes delicious, and is perfect for grilling on a warm summer evening! Check out the link in my follow for the recipe.

Do you have your Easter Menu set and your shopping done? It doesn’t matter if we host Easter dinner or brunch, you’ll likely find a large platter of grilled asparagus as one of the side dishes! This year it will be served alongside quiche, ham, fruit parfaits, deviled eggs, and cinnamon roll monkey bread for Easter brunch! Click on the link in my profile to see how I make my grilled asparagus.

Easter! Wow, I can’t believe it’s this Sunday! Do you have any Easter family traditions? Ours usually starts off with church, followed by an egg hunt and enjoying either brunch or an early dinner with family and friends. I’ll be hosting a small family brunch this year. I’m still finalizing my menu, but plan on including a delicious ham served with this Brown Sugar Mustard Glaze! You can find the recipe on my blog (follow the link in my profile).

Just three more days till Valentine’s Days! I love how this table turned out, with the black and red! I added more elements to it than I normally do, but I was in the mood for a fun bright table! I talked about adding layers to a tablescape in my blog post, if you want to head on over and read it. The link is in my profile.

Muddy Buddies (aka Puppy Chow) isn’t a new recipe. I was curious enough to look it up and read that it started in the Midwest in the early 60’s. 
I’ve snacked on it plenty of times, but had never made it until this week. A few colored M&Ms easily transforms it into a treat for any holiday or occasion!
