The end of June snuck up on us and we are full into summer now. As Brenda is still in the US, I am taking over What’s for Dinner for next week. I do not have a family to feed like Brenda but I do love to cook, eat and feed my friends in Sweden!
Today is Midsummer in Sweden, probably the biggest holiday of the year. Celebrating summer in the longest day of the year. Every Swede, whether a native or not, celebrates today with traditional Swedish food, songs, dancing around the Midsummer pole. If you are interested in finding out more, check out it here, https://www.swedishnomad.com/swedish-midsummer/ My main goal, besides having fun, is not to have a hangover as the Swedes do like their snaps.
Now back to What’s for Dinner next week, staying with our theme of Clean Summer Fun, including veggie burgers.
I made the Jackfruit pulled pork burgers last week which were out of this world. Still eating the leftovers, my boyfriend loves that. This recipe is definitely going in my rotation!
This week I will make vegan burger buns, will be a first for me. I decided to give it a try as vegan buns are not available at my local smallish grocery.
Recipes this week will be:
Halloumi burger with tomato salsa and avocado cream, with vegan buns
Chili lime shrimp wraps
Summer chicken tray bake
Vegetarian mushroom meatballs
Mexican quinoa stuff portabella mushrooms (Wednesdays we eat vegan)
Salmon asparagus with garlic lemon
Spicy roasted carrots with Tahini lentil salad
