Summer is here and for the few sunny days we do have in the UK, here are my top 5 recipes of 2016 to enjoy in the summer sun.
1. Wine Slushies
If you’ve never heard of these, they are amazing - basically slushies with alcohol! All you need is frozen summer fruits, wine, sugar, mint and ice. Unfortunately however, I don’t this counts as one of your 5-a-day!
2. Chicken and Prawn Curry BBQ Skewers
These are easy to make and great on the BBQ. Simply marinade chicken and jumbo prawns in your favourite curry sauce and load onto skewers with veg.
3. Homemade Beef Burgers
The trump card at any BBQ. Great because you can put whatever flavours you want in them, generally they’re lower in fat, and it’s an excuse to get really messy with your hands!
4. Strawberry and Cucumber Iced Water
A great flavoursome alternative to boring water and tastes really refreshing. Made with peeled cucumber, halved strawberries and loads of ice.
5. Chocolate and Hazelnut Gelato Recipe
This is for the Nutella lovers out there. You’ll need an ice cream for this but it’s totally worth it to enjoy on a hot summer’s day. This is literally a bear hug in your mouth!
So there are my top 5 recipes to enjoy in summer 2016. If you give any of them a go, let me know how you get on and leave a comment below.
