THE RECIPES
Applewood Smoked and Grilled Corn Salad

We've got a lot of corn on this week's menu, so we're kicking things off with a fresh corn salad. Serve this with grilled chicken or salmon for the ultimate summer salad.

Feedfeed Tip If you don't have a grill, you can either use a grill pan to cook the corn, or steam it in the microwave or bake it. Of course, the grill is ideal for that smoky flavor and that unmistakable char.
Salmon Taco Salad with Jalapeno Lime Vinaigrette

by @thefeedfeed

Looks like #TacoTuesday came one day early this week, but we're certainly not mad about that. Make sure that the tortilla chips are gluten free!

Feedfeed Tip In order to get that perfect sear on the salmon, it's important to let the salmon cook skin-side up, undisturbed. The more you move it around, the less crispy the final product will be!

Feedfeed Tip This recipe calls for frying the egg in butter, but if you prefer, you can use oil. Butter will impart more flavor, but if you're in a pinch, oil will work just fine.

Feedfeed Tip Make sure to let the steak rest for 5 minutes after cooking. If you cut it immediately, all those tasty juices will run right out, so waiting a few minutes ensures that the steak is as juicy and succulent as possible.
 
Grilled Peaches with Ice Cream, Honey, and Almonds

by @honestlyyum

If you're not spending your weekends grilling summer's ripe stone fruits, then you're doing it all wrong. Top 'em off with some vanilla ice cream, toasted almonds, a drizzle of honey, and you're good to go.
