With summer just around the corner, I’ve started thinking about all the delicious summer grilling recipes, bbq side dishes, and summer salads I want to make this year.

If you’ve been here before, you may already know that summer is my absolute favorite season (although fall is a close second especially when you love apples and pumpkin everything like I do). Anyway, there is just something about summer with its warm, relaxing days full of picnics, summer activities, and of course, all that delicious food.

And, when it comes to grilling during the summer, the first thing that always comes to mind is delicious and juicy burgers. Of course, burgers can be enjoyed all year (I’ve included a few burger recipes you can cook on the stove and in the oven). However, grilled burgers with homemade pasta salad on the side is one of my favorite summer dinners.

So, I thought I would gather up some of the best burger recipes you can make this summer. Whether you need ideas for your next potluck, 4th of July cookout, or if you are just looking for an easy kid-friendly weeknight dinner idea. You will love these simple and tasty recipes.


Looking for more easy summer recipes? Besides juicy burgers and grilled chicken recipes, foil-pack dinners are some of our favorite recipes to make in the summer because they are such an easy no-fuss way to get dinner on the table fast.

And, of course, we can’t forget about all the delicious summer desserts like s’mores, juicy strawberry, raspberry, and blueberry desserts. As well, as easy no-bake summer desserts or frozen summer snacks when you need a sweet treat to bring to your next summer party.
