Recipes to Welcome Summer!
Today I’m sharing some great recipes to whip up as summer approaches. These are favorites of my family and I know they will be in yours, too!
Watermelonade
This recipe takes one of my favorite flavors of summer, amps it up just a bit, and makes it drinkable!
This recipe shows you how to take real, honest to goodness, homemade banana pudding and turn it into a freezer treat that can be ready anytime the need arises!
Crock Pot Hot Dogs from Recipes That Crock
Make hot dogs for a crowd that taste like the ones you buy at fairs!
Fresh Fruit Salad with Honey Lime Dressing from Southern Bite
Fruit is taken up a notch with a lightly sweetened dressing, perfect for your next party – or afternoon on the porch!
Honey Soy Grilled Chicken Thighs from Mommy’s Kitchen are a flavorful and budget friendly recipe for the grill!
So many of the flavors that are near and dear to a Southerner’s heart are combined into this remarkable dish!
Picnic Pasta Salad from South Your Mouth
I love a cold pasta salad on a hot day. This one is a classic, filled with fresh flavors, and using a bottled dressing makes it come together in a wink!
I make this with canned peaches during the winter months but as soon as fresh peaches come in, I can hardly wait to make it with those!
Cherry Limeade from The Country Cook
Another great refresher! I love having a “special” drink when company calls!

Sorry to hear you were so sick. However, glad to learn you’re on the mend and feeling better.
Have a blessed day and stay healthy. ♥
Thank you Judy!
Did I miss the May Scripture Writing Plan?
Here is a link to that post: https://southernplatecom.bigscoots-staging.com/2016/04/april-scripture-writing-plan-2.html
Picnic season also calls for some of those deviled eggs with the red stuff sprinkled on top! I love making your recipe from the Southern Plate cookbook.
Thank you!!
You don’t put any liquid in the crock pot?
Cris from Recipes that Crock says no water is needed.

waste of time – crummy.
Hey Phil! I’m so sorry you were confused.
When you click on the link there are instructions in a printable recipe card at the bottom. Maybe you overlooked it? For this post, the author didn’t feel photos were necessary to demonstrate putting weenies in a crock pot. I have the instructions pasted below from her post. If you need my help figuring them out please let me know.
Have a great day!
Instructions pasted from post:
Place hot dogs in slow cooker and close lid.
Cook on low for 3-4 hours or high for 1-2 hours.
This crock pot hot dogs trick is awesome for feeding a crown on a budget! I’ve pulled it out many times to put on a “hot dog bar” for our large family gatherings. It’s a real handy one at kids’ b-day parties and large get-togethers! I personally add beef broth (mix up some bouillon) and a couple drops of liquid smoke to the pot to make my cheap weenies taste even better. 🙂
Great idea Josey, thanks for sharing!!
hey girl these all look so yummy!
