Are you planning your Father's Day menu yet?
I have been planning mine for months now, that's what happens when your whole life is surrounded by food.
My hubby L.O.V.E.S. to BBQ.
Which I love too because then he does the cooking, at least the meat on the grill part.
Because we eat a lot of BBQ in the summer I am always looking for new side dishes. Something to spice up the normal hamburger, hot dog, chicken, fish combo that is pretty standard summer fare at our house.
So in honor of Father's Day and BBQ season I am going to be sharing some of our favorite side dishes.
There are so many ways to make this lovely little dish, but this way is our favorite. It is very quick and easy to whip up. Plus you can make it as spicy or mild as you like.
