We only have a few more weeks of summer and I have mixed feelings about it all. I mean let’s be honest, in Texas we have about three more months of summer weather, but with every new season there is a shift. I am hanging on to low key dinner nights, grilling in the backyard, sounds of water splashing in the kiddie pool behind me, and not having too much of an agenda. So that’s what we are going do for these last weeks of summer. Let’s savor it all with a fun twist on a classic recipe that I grew up eating. Low country boils are popular in the south and are typically served up on a warm summer day spread out on newspapers and enjoyed with cold beers. But because not everyone has a ginormous pot hanging around and an outside burner, I am taking those same nostalgic flavors and making them easy enough for anyone to whip up any night of the week. This recipe for low country boil skewers is going to be your new favorite grilling recipe and you are going to love just how easy they are to make.

Summertime means lots of grilling is happening at my house for a couple of reasons. Number one, grilling means not having to turn on the oven or the stove on when its scorching outside, and number two, grilling makes clean up a breeze when you don’t have dishes to wash after the meal is done. Need I say more? I partnered with Tony Chachere’s to bring you a super simple, but out of this world tasty recipe that you are going to want to make all season long. Grilled sausages get sandwiched between a perfectly grilled bun and topped with a Cajun corn salsa to create the ultimate summer grilled sausage dog. I can guarantee that this recipe for grilled sausage dogs with Cajun corn salsa is going to make you do a happy dance with every single bite.
Lettuce wraps are one of those things that I love having almost weekly. There are so many possibilities for flavor combinations and I especially love using lettuce wraps with spicy food because of the crisp freshness that the lettuce gives the dish. While you are probably most familiar with Asian Chicken Lettuce wraps, I love using wraps in other recipes as well. Spicy Korean pork is one of those foods that has an undeniable flavor and is actually really easy to create at home too. These delicious grilled spicy Korean pork lettuce wraps are a great weeknight dinner option and will quickly become a favorite dish in your house.
If you want to know the way to my heart, I am going to let you in on a little secret…just bring me a cheeseburger. I am not even kidding, most girls prefer diamonds, but I prefer a juicy classic American cheeseburger complete with all the fixings! When I was pregnant with my son, cheeseburgers were my number one craving and you can ask my husband about how many cheeseburgers we both consumed during those nine months and neither one of us would be able to tell you! Needless to say, I created a four year old kid who’s favorite food also happens to be a cheeseburger and I am one proud mama. I love a good cheeseburger when we go out to eat, but I have to say my at home recipe rivals most cheeseburgers out there and it couldn’t be any simpler to make! My recipe for the best cheeseburgers is going to up your summer grilling game and will have you looking like a burger pro in no time.

I may be from Tennessee, but I married into a Cajun family and even though it’s not in my blood, I have grown to have an intense love for Cajun culture and cuisine! So much so, that I wrote my first cookbook with all of my favorite Cajun recipes that are near and dear to my heart! (I did live in Louisiana for ten years after all!) One of my favorite all time classic Louisiana dishes happens to be a po’ boy! I love all of the varieties that are available, but nothing beats a shrimp po’ boy in my opinion! That’s why I partnered with Tony Chachere’s to bring you the perfect summer grilling recipe! My Grilled Shrimp Po’ Boys are a lighter take on the classic and are easy to whip up any night of the week!
