- Guys. IT IS FRIDAY. Is it just me or has it been 9 days instead of 5 this week? We are positively dying for the weekend, and I don't really know why. ANYWAY. I did a #tbt yesterday to this mustard curry sauce, and realized that with this craziness I haven't even shown you a single new fun summer recipe for this weekend, so here are a few more! These smashed burgers. After our trip to Shake Shack a few weeks ago in NYC, I'm more convinced than ever that this is my new fav way to eat burgers forever and ever amen.
- For side dishes (esp for potlucks), I vote feta ranch chopped salad, vegan potato salad, or, my personal favorite, Cheez-It topped mac and cheese. You can skip the chicken or leave it in - you're the boss.
- If you aren't into regular cookout food, why not some crispy steak tacos? I love tacos on holidays, no matter what the occasion. They just feel festive, right?
- Ok, one last side dish. THIS PASTA SALAD. It's not healthy. It's creamy and classic and retro and GREAT. Also here's a post with tons of other links that I did last year if you need even more ideas.
- I hope you have wonderful plans to relax this weekend and eat and drink and play. I've been contemplating forcing Jay to do night duty tonight so that I can memorialize what it feels like to sleep for longer than 3 hours. I probably won't go through with it, but damn if it doesn't feel good to just think about it. We actually have ZERO plans and I kind of like it that way, even though I'm sure some fun things will come up. Maybe tacos. Have a great one!
