I have a garden in my backyard, and every summer, I always end up with a ton of tomatoes. Making plum tomato sauce from scratch is an excellent way to use them up. I sometimes make an extra batch or two to freeze so I can eat it in the fall – it’s such a treat. If your garden is overflowing with grape or cherry tomatoes, try this grape tomato version.

The shrimp in these Coconut Red Curry Shrimp Skewers marinate in cooling coconut milk, spicy red curry paste and jalapeños, and fresh garlic, ginger, and lime juice. It’s a match made in heaven for big, juicy shrimp, which get nicely charred with the veggies on the grill. Most of the prep and cook time is hands-off, leaving you time to heat your grill and enjoy the summer weather.

Panzanella is a traditional Italian bread salad, where cubes of (usually stale) bread add some heft to fresh summer vegetables at peak ripeness. Here, the bread is more of a background player with its crunchiness providing a great counterpoint to the juicy, sweet grilled fruit and shrimp. More grilled shrimp skewers you will love are these Grilled Shrimp Scampi Skewers and Grilled Pesto Shrimp Skewers.

It’s probably pretty obvious by the many fried rice recipes on my blog that I LOVE fried rice! While I enjoy ordering takeout from a restaurant, I always try to find ways to recreate fried rice at home. That way, I can control what goes in it and keep it a bit lighter. I have multiple fried rice recipes, like House Special Fried Rice, Pineapple Shrimp Fried Rice, and Spicy Shrimp Fried Rice , but since I am the only salmon lover in my house, I usually whip this dish up for one, it’s my favorite! Also great with leftover salmon. You can double or triple as needed.
