Burgers with Roasted Tomatoes, Pesto, and Mozzarella

May 20, 2013

Looks like summer. Feels like summer. Tastes like summer. That pretty much sums up this burger. And our weekend.

Grilled Tilapia with Orange-Avocado Salsa

Grilled Salmon with Strawberry Avocado Salsa

Have you entered the KitchenAid Stand Mixer giveaway yet? You should! Contest closes Thursday night! It’s an unlikely combination, but one that works. Like, really works.
