Earthly Edibles

When thoughts come of summer, we often think of watermelons, picnics and the barbecue grill.  Preparing meals on the grill not only keeps the heat out of the kitchen but also provides an opportunity to eat outside. The foods that we choose can often be started ahead of time so we can spend more time with family and friends. Here is a warm weather menu idea that is not only mouth watering but also a healthier alternative to some of those old standbys. Happy Summer!

Summer Grill Menu:

Grilled Salmon with Mango Jalepeno Salsa
