Summer Supper Ideas
Feeling the heat and running out of creative ideas in the kitchen? Let’s up our game and try out some fun twists on classic southern ingredients! To start, let me introduce my adorable friend Shannon Parker… she’s all about getting creative in the kitchen.
After being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, she had to adapt her favorite southern dishes to match her healthier lifestyle. I am BEYOND impressed with this chica! She slowed down the stress and upped healthier cooking habits without compromising flavor (my kinda lady…). When I asked Shannon if she might share some summer supper ideas with my Old Southern Charm friends, she got so excited and had a ton of amazing recipe ideas. I had to narrow it down to 3 here for times sake, but if you’re on the hunt for healthy, family friendly meal ideas, please go check out her new website at shannonparker.org or follow her for “faith, food & fitness” tips on Instagram! So, without further ado… here’s what I’m trying out from Shannon’s kitchen this month: Summer Steak, Feel Good Mac N’ Cheese, Easy Sweet Potatoes.
Bonus: Can you guess what’s in Shannon’s gorgeous summer salad above? Watermelon radishes certainly steal the show! * If you have Southern Supper ideas, please help a mama out!
