SUMMER IS A COMING! WAHOO! I am SO thrilled. Jake and I just got are backyard fully landscaped – how adult are we? And it looks awesome. I should have taken a before and after picture, but of course I did not. Oh well. Summer time means getting outside, enjoying the sunshine, and of course eating fresh food! This weekend we are turning on the grill for the first time this season and my brain is BUZZING with ideas. Chicken, veggies, burgers, pizza – there are so many amazing foods that can be made on the grill! I just can’t keep them all straight! Hence, the creation of this roundup: Easy Grilling Recipes. 1 – to help me decide what the heck I want to make on the grill. And 2 – to help anyone else who might be having the same trouble!

I love grilling for so many reasons:

1. Food cooks quickly
2. Cleanup is easy
3. And I swear, everything just tastes better on the grill

Having said all that, I am pretty much a grilling NOVICE! I can do the simple stuff – burgers, chicken, salmon, roasted veggies, and corn – but all my grilled food is pretty basic and lightly seasoned.

The grill naturally adds so much flavor to food, so truly you don’t need to season a lot! But, this summer, I want to step up my game. Take my grilling to the next level! Wow the crowd!

So here goes nothing, 72 Easy Grilling Recipes to amp up your summertime eats!
