Grilled Fish Tacos

Fish tacos are a classic summer dish and a great way to enjoy seafood. To make them, start by marinating some fish in a mixture of olive oil, lime juice, garlic, and chili powder. Then, grill the fish until it is cooked through. Serve the fish in warm tortillas with a mixture of diced tomatoes, red onion, bell pepper, and cilantro. Top with a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream and a squeeze of lime juice. Enjoy!

Caprese Salad

This classic Italian salad is the perfect light summer dinner. Start by slicing some ripe tomatoes and fresh mozzarella cheese. Then, arrange the tomatoes and mozzarella on a plate and season with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Top with fresh basil leaves and a sprinkle of balsamic vinegar. Serve with a piece of crusty bread and enjoy!

Greek Chicken Bowl

This Greek-style bowl is a delicious and healthy dinner option. Start by cooking some quinoa according to the package instructions. Then, pan-fry some chicken breasts until they are cooked through. Serve the quinoa and chicken in a bowl with roasted vegetables (we love bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion), feta cheese, and a drizzle of tzatziki sauce. Enjoy!

Veggie Burgers

Veggie burgers are a great way to enjoy a delicious dinner without the meat. You can find pre-made veggie burgers at most grocery stores, but you can also make your own. To make your own veggie burgers, start by mashing together a can of black beans, an egg, some diced onion, garlic, and spices. Form the mixture into patties and cook in a skillet until they are golden and crispy. Serve the burgers on a bun with your favorite toppings and enjoy!

Grilled Veggie Skewers

These delicious and healthy veggie skewers are a great summer dinner option. Start by prepping a variety of vegetables (think bell peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes). Then, thread the vegetables onto skewers and brush with a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs. Grill the skewers until the vegetables are tender and lightly charred. Serve with a side of couscous or quinoa and a sprinkle of feta cheese. Enjoy!
