Five on Friday: Grilled Favorites

I love to send Chris outside to cook during the summer. I hate turning the oven on and standing over a hot stove, so I want to share a few of my favorite grilled meals.

1. Roasted Corn Orzo Chicken Salad
I did a post about this a few weeks ago and it is literally my new favorite meal. I have to cook a few things in the house, but the main parts of the meal are grilled.

2. Frozen Pizza
This is the absolute best way to cook frozen pizza. It changes the flavor and makes it taste like a pizza from a wood fired pizza oven.

3. Chicken and Grilled Veggies
I know this is a simple, go-to meal for most people, but it is one of my favorites. You can marinate it in Italian dressing or BBQ sauce to change it up every night.

4. Salmon
I love plain, grilled salmon. Don't put stuff on my salmon. Maybe salt.

5. Summer favorites
Burgers, Sausage, Hot Dogs...toss some corn on the cob on the grill as well to round out your dinner.

Jennie's Recipe Review: Roasted Corn Chicken Orzo Salad

I have been trying to make Roasted Corn Chicken Orzo Salad from Little Spice Jar for weeks.

It is a little out of my culinary comfort zone and I just wasn't sure Chris would like it...

We both LOVED it. Seriously one of our favorite dinners in a while.

Let's break down what I changed...

Chris makes THE BEST smoked chicken breast on the grill, so I had him smoke two chicken breasts and I wrapped the corn in foil with butter and sent it out to the grill as well.

We also used our home grown cabbage in place of the spinach.  Otherwise, I followed the recipe as written.

It was freaking delicious. We ate it both hot and cold and it was great both ways. One note that Chris had was it was a little lime-y, so next time I'm going to reduce the lime in the dressing.

You need to make this recipe...tomorrow.
