Quick and Easy Summer Dinner Ideas

I don’t know about you but I hate slaving over the stove, especially when it’s summertime! It’s already hot outside and spending hours over the stove day in and day out is just the last thing I want to do! One of my very best tips to make dinner time a breeze, especially in the summer, is to take one day in the month (or week)and cook large amounts of meat. Then I store the meat in the freezer (if I am using it in over a week) or in the fridge (if I plan to use the meat sometime that week). I then use that meat to make recipes that involve meat that needs to be previously cooked, like the 20 recipes I have found for you below! These 20 easy summer dinner ideas are not only made with the healthiest meat, they are easy, delicious, and kid approved!
