What's in Season in June? {Produce Guide + Recipes!}

 
What’s in Season in June?

What’s in Season in June?

Hello June and welcome to month 6 of our Monthly Produce Guide!

With June comes the tail end of spring and the the start of the glorious bountiful summer produce season.

What a month for fruit! Strawberries starting coming in a month ago, and now they are joined by cherries, apricots, and blueberries. It's the season for tropical fruit as well—pineapples, mangoes, and papaya.

For veggies, we may still find remnants of spring—local asparagus, morels, favas, and sweet peas. The first zucchini of the season arrive, as well as cucumbers, peppers, and even corn. Lettuces abound, along with radishes, carrots, and cauliflower.

12 Foods Dad (Truly) Wants on Father’s Day

 
12 Foods Dad (Truly) Wants on Father's Day

12 Foods Dad (Truly) Wants on Father's Day

Grilled pork chops and steaks–and other typical dude foods—are pretty much a gimme for Father's Day. So we polled a bunch of our dad friends and decided to find out what they really want to eat on Father's Day.

Did they want dude food? Did they want something else? Some of the responses are what you might expect – and we're including a few of those in this round-up as well! — but a few of the answers might surprise you.

Like, lasagna. And simple salmon with a nice sauce. And even chocolate cream pie!

{NEW!} Strawberry Ice Cream, Instant Pot Pasta Primavera, Chicken Caesar Salad, and MORE!

Latest recipes from Simply Recipes.
 

Hello, everybody! I hope your week is off to a great start. The weather out here in California has been phenomonal and we've been pulling out the grill almost every night. (Did you try that Grilled Chili Garlic Chicken from last week? I've made it TWICE!) 

Wherever you are, I hope you're looking forward to some lazy dinners outside while you plan out the next few months of summer.

Strawberry Ice Cream

by Summer Miller

Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe

When I was a little girl, the doll Strawberry Shortcake ruled my world. I asked for strawberry ice cream and strawberry cake every year for my birthday. One year, I even had strawberry scented scratch-and-sniff wrapping paper on my presents.

Now that I'm older, I've given up dolls, but not my love of strawberries. I grow strawberry plants in my garden, and I eagerly anticipate plucking the sweet berries from them each June. At the top of my strawberry-loving list is ice cream.

 

Pressure Cooker Pasta Primavera

Pasta Primavera in the Pressure Cooker

With a mix of seasonal, colorful vegetables, this pasta primavera is just the thing as the seasons transition from spring to summer.

Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad

by Sabrina Modelle

Caesar Salad with Grilled Chicken Recipe

Caesar salad is a classic. Crisp romaine, rich and garlicky dressing, crunchy croutons, and the pungent tang of good Parmesan—they come together to create a uniquely balanced salad.

This version adds a smoky element with the grilled chicken and the grilled garlic croutons.

 

Buffalo Blue Cheese Deviled Eggs

by Garrett McCord

Deviled Eggs with Blue Cheese

As a kid, I thought deviled eggs were quite possibly just that: Of the devil.

Not that I ever ate them. Even now that I have the gift of hindsight, I can't say what governed my sensibilities around deviled eggs as a child. Or any other food for that matter, which is a common trial many parents face when feeding their children. I was no exception.

The fact that deviled eggs looked kind of gross—regardless of the fact that I actually loved eggs, mustard, and mayo—was reason enough.

How to Cook Pork Chops Sous Vide

by Carrie Havranek

Sous Vide Pork Chops

Pork chops—bone in or boneless—are so delicious and easy to cook. But that also means they are easy to overcook. And there's nothing worse than a dry pork chop that is too tough to swallow.

Enter sous vide. It's a cooking style that is known for its ability to keep cuts of meat, such as pork chops, moist and tender. It's also a failsafe way to cook pork and guarantee it's going to turn out spectacular. Every single time. Promise.

Take Out Favorites at Home

The allure of ordering your favorite takeout meal on a crazy weeknight can be almost impossible to resist, whether it's Indian, Chinese, Thai, or the perennial favorite—pizza. It can feel like a necessary indulgence when life gets ahead of you.

However, sometimes it can be fun to cook your own takeout menu favorites at home!

{MEAL PLAN!} Hawaiian Burgers, Asparagus Pizza, Chicken on Angel Hair, and more!

 
Meal Plan for June Week 2

Meal Plan for June Week 2

This month, we welcome back Marta Rivera for more of her meal plans. Marta is a trained chef, mom of twins, and Army wife – and she is also one of our Simply Recipes recipe testers!

For me, and most other military families, June means "See You Later." Summer is the time of year when members of our military are moving to their next duty stations en masse — we refer to it as "PCS Season" (or "Permanent Change of Station" Season).

It's a time for cleaning out pantries, bringing easy to heat-and-eat meals to our departing neighbors, and tearful goodbyes.

THIS WEEK: Hawaiian Burgers, Asparagus Pizza, Roast Chicken on Angel Hair, and more!
