Summertime and the cooking is easy.

 I recently found myself poking around the internet looking for some fresh summer ideas for cooking vegetables and grilled fare. I had hoped to find some yummy recipes for the abundance of vegetables that are beginning to ripen in our summer garden (bliss!). In my hunt, I uncovered a wealth of FREE and most definitely “pass-a-long worthy” resources.  

I’ve compiled the list below and hope that you, too, find some inspiration to cook something new for your next outdoor grilling event or summer dinner with the family (lots of great ideas for 4th of July entertaining tucked into these links as well)!   

The FREE resource scoop:  

:: Martha Stewart Summer Grilling Cookbook (pdf).  This  FREE Ebook includes over 30 recipes for appetizers, main dishes, and desserts (and everything in between). The recipes come straight from acclaimed chefs such as Fort Worth’s own Tim Love, Emeril Lagasse, Steven Raichlen (BBQ Expert & Author), and more.   

Mike Mills’ (17th Street Grill) even tells how to make his special BBQ Rub from scratch!   Tip:  This ebook is available for a limited time, and is downloadable as a pdf.  Be sure to print out the recipes you like or save them to your computer (or to your pdf capable smart phone).   

:: Cook’s Illustrated (America’s Test Kitchen) Grilled Vegetable Guide (pdf).  This 2-page FREE guide (direct from Cook’s Illustrated magazine), unpacks the results of the trial kitchen’s quest to find the ultimate way to grill vegetables with tasty success.  They have recommended simple methods for getting no-fail results along with great illustrations and easy-to-follow tips. This is downloadable as a pdf, too!   

                                    

:: Paula Deen’s Summer Grill Recipes. This link is full of summer recipes and grilling inspiration from Paula Dean.  Perfect for getting ideas for Fourth of July and Summer Cookouts.

:: Southern Living Magazine’s Favorite Summer Vegetable Recipes (special web section).  One of our regular stops for looking for dinner inspiration, Southern Living has compiled a nice set of recipes that take advantage of summer’s bounty.  Click here and you’ll also find an archive of all the recipes from every monthly issue (including our family’s favorite recipe for King Ranch Chicken).   

:: Taste of Home’s Top 10 Grilled Vegetable Recipes. In addition to recipes, you’ll find links for grilling “how-tos”  plus a fruit and vegetable grilling chart (complete with recommended cooking times and temperatures).
