Happy Monday! I'm basking in the glow of a positively normal weekend! No weddings, no guests, no plans. It was glorious! It kicked off a 6 week stretch where we don't have any real obligations on the weekends. That's my kind of summer!
It's been a while since I've done a Menu Monday. Heck, it's been a while since I've done a lot of things on this blog, but that's another story. Since, this is 4th of July week, I thought it would be nice to highlight some of my classic, standby recipes for a grill-out get together. I will be making most of these recipes for our own little shindig. If you're still menu planning, or looking for something to add to your recipe collection, here are some all-time greats!
Chinese Noodle Slaw - This is the only slaw I ever make. I LOVE it. It's a crowd pleaser every time!
Watermelon Cucumber Salad - If you've got a supply of watermelon, this is a great (and different) way to use it. Give it a try!!
Sweet BBQ Pineapple Kabobs - Kabobs are so festive and fun! I love mixing up different ingredients together on a skewer. This recipe is delicious. I love the combo of sweet orange and bbq sauce!
Beans - These baked beans are not like the average baked bean dish. It is chock-full of various bean types with a tangy sauce, and bacon to top it all off! This has been a family favorite of ours for a long time.
Fruit Tarts - It doesn't get any easier than this. Trust me! If you need a quick, patriotic dessert, this is your go-to item. They're also light and delicious!
Cobbler - I love homemade cobbler and ice cream. This is one of my favorite dessert recipes on the blog, and you could use any fruit you like!
I hope this little round up has been handy for you! I know I'm hungry just thinking about all of this food :)

I've already done my menu planning for this week, but I definitely want to make the watermelon feta salad soon!
These all sound wonderful. I follow you on Pinterest but couldn't find these on your board. If you haven't already, please pin them. I would love to be able to pin these from my phone!
Hi Patty- all of those pins are on my board "From My Blog" - I see that you aren't following that one. That's probably why you can't see them. Thanks!
