It’s a fairly simple dish.
Simple is good.
Simple is just plain o’ simple and when you’re in a time crunch or you’re not in the mood to create a lavish dish, simple is just about all you need.
Especially when it’s summer.
And all you wanna do is soak up the sun.
Read a food magazine.
And sip on a freshly brewed iced tea.
Not spend hours slaving over your stove.
Just a few mere minutes next to your ol’ grill and you’re all set with this one.
Yes, you heard me correctly. A few minutes and you’ve gotta side dish that’ll knock your socks off.
Wanna bite?

Grilled peaches are just the best – love it paired with balsamic!
What a fabulous combination of ingredients! This sounds delicious.
Thank you Jen; great to hear from you. So happy to have found your blog; I love it!
Oh, how perfect! We’re getting married next year and I’ve been checking out invitations on Minted already! I love the invitation called float + spring shades
Mmmm, looks delicious, can’t wait to try this recipe out!
What a beautiful giveaway! I love the Paris and Vintage one. Stationary reminds me of old times…simple times indeed. Thank you for introducing us to a fabulous site!
Simple meals – AMEN. I get exhausted just looking and reading recipes/blogs with extensive to-do’s or ingredients. But then I always get confused too…so many bloggers love to read about food, write about it, look at recipes – but then do just keep it simple with meals. So is it healthy to be so involved in food then? I don’t know anymore…
Thank you so much; so great to hear from you darling! Read what you love and you’ll be happy…don’t worry about what everyone else is reading as long as you are happy!
