There is no vacation visiting our favorite gardens for the summer of 2020. Being at home means we are cooking more and some people feel themselves running out of ideas for what to make for dinner.

Take advantage of outdoor cooking and dining by getting outside and using the reliable grill. You can make cheeseburgers, grilled chicken and even dessert by grilling squares of pound cake and topping with the season’s berry options like blueberries or strawberries.

When making cheeseburgers, try and use a different cheese to melt on top of the charred burgers to switch things up. Muenster cheese, or a mix of sharp and mild cheddar, can be a welcome change to your dinner menu.

We also like an herb goat cheese to spread on the burgers as soon as they come off the hot grill. Top with a slightly toasted bun for a burger with the tang of goat cheese and a mild herb flavor.

Let’s continue to share ideas for future menus. Have you made pizza on the grill? Maybe that’s the next conversation.

We still have summer produce to enjoy! Be sure and follow more food and drink ideas over at https://parade.com/member/aliceknisleymatthias-2/
