This blog is a great one-stop-shop for a backyard BBQ fit for a king, with a printable menu and hostess plan! The menu includes a cheese appetizer, dill potato salad, blueberry spinach salad, cedar plank salmon burgers, and delicious rum roasted pineapple for dessert. hmm!
A special breakfast is ready! If dad is a “team” savory breakfast person, this Croque Monsieur casserole, with a drizzle of homemade béchamel, will be perfection. Top with poached or fried eggs if dad has a bigger appetite.
If dad prefers something sweet, these pancakes are straight from heaven! This recipe for Angel Cakes is the BEST pancake recipe you will ever try. They got their name from their light, fluffy, heavenly taste. These are one of my most popular and highly rated recipes and for good reason. Plus, they’re easy enough that kids can help make it! If you can handle the cleaning lol.
Looking for an effortless yet impressive appetizer? Meet the 7-Layer Greek Dip: delicious healthy layers of hummus, tzatziki and all the Greek fixings. Grab some chips or pie and dive in! I love that it’s easy to put together, giving you more time out of the kitchen and precious time with your family.
Let this crockpot recipe do the work for you so you can spend more time with Dad! These Chicken Crockpot Sliders are slowly cooked in the crockpot with a simple homemade barbecue sauce. In just a few simple steps, you’ll have tender pulled chicken to add to a fresh bun and top with a refreshing dill coleslaw. Perfect for a large (hungry) crowd!
Ribs with mashed potatoes and coleslaw are a summer dinner staple. This recipe for a classic rib dinner it’s actually from my digital meal plan: Fraîche table. Years ago, I was consistently frustrated and stressed so much with the meals of the day. I looked for something that could do the meal planning for me in a way that it actually helped, and went up empty-handed. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands and create it myself!

This homemade BBQ sauce makes the perfect DIY gift that’s so simple the kids can make it! This sauce is a winner. It’s perfectly sweet (you can use honey or brown sugar, your choice), a little smoky and very versatile: it will go with everything! And hey, you know the way to a man’s heart…
These crab cakes are super delicious and can (and should) be made ahead of time! You can easily prepare them ahead of time or the day before and refrigerate them until just before the guests arrive and you start cooking them. Easy gourmet at its best!
This bright and citrusy Seafood Linguine is a refreshing departure from the traditional heavier versions of this pasta that are usually filled with cream. The best part is that the whole dish comes together in just over 30 minutes! Serve with a crisp white wine like a Pinot Gris and transport Dad to the coast with this meal. Gives me Nantucket vibes.
Make homemade pizza with all dad’s favorite toppings! Here is my pizza dough recipe.
You’ll want to add this feta salad to everything! This is a very special recipe straight from my husband Charles (he’s rather famous for it) to make your next BBQ soar. You can thank him later! You’ll be so impressed with how simple this recipe is and how much of a crowd favorite it will be! It takes whatever you combine it with, at Next flat (we love it on grilled chicken, fish or steak).
This peanut butter pie is my dad’s own favorite and will earn you a standing ovation (and possibly your favorite child for life). With a crunchy chocolate chip cookie crust, a creamy peanut butter filling, and a showy salty, crunchy chocolate topping, this dessert is the perfect “something sweet” for any holiday. Other ideas include this Easy Tiramisu, Cafe Au Lait Cheesecake or Bourbon Apple Crisp.
