Summer Main Dish Recipes

These are some of the main dish recipes I love to make in the summer for everyday fare or casual entertaining. Most are light, easy to prepare and budget-friendly. Many of the meats and some of the vegetables are grilled because, like many of you, I prefer cooking outdoors as much as possible during the summer. However, all of the recipes can be prepared indoors. I also took seasonal foods into consideration. Seafood, summer vegetables and many fruits are especially tasty and less expensive during the local harvest. There are many more recipes at TerisKitchen.com so, if you don't find what you are looking for, use the search box or browse through the Recipes, Features and Resources Index. I hope that you will try some of the recipes and enjoy!
