Hey there reader!
This is the last week of school for my girls! Yay! I don't know if it's because we were coming off a couple of years at home learning and shutdowns, but this school year was one of our busiest seasons. It was a great year, and my kids hit many milestones, but I am ready for a break!
I've said numerous times that taking time to stock my freezer with some healthy foods is a must for the beginning of the summer. Usually, my freezer is busting at the seams with breakfast burritos, baked oatmeal, steel-cut oats, green smoothie kits, energy balls and muffins, and packages of chicken marinades.
But I haven't had any time. So, this week I'm going to be playing catch-up. I'm going to start with breakfast burritos and baked oatmeal cups because my kids look for those the most. Then I'll take a day to get some freezer snacks made. I'm not too worried about dinner, but breakfast and snacks are a must.
Okay, let's get to our newsletter!

Recipes to Try This Week.
Here are more "easy start of the summer" recipes. These are always on the menu when I know I'll be short on time or don't feel like cooking.
- Strawberry Mango Smoothie. This is another favorite of my kids.
- Strawberry overnight oats. It's strawberry season, and this is one of my favorite ways to use juicy strawberries.
- The Best Blueberry Muffins. I use greek yogurt to add moisture and protein; these muffins are excellent.
- Greek Dressing. I love making homemade dressing, and this one is a favorite. You can also use it as a chicken marinade.
- Grilled Chipotle Chicken. Amazing smokey sweet flavor. I will have this on repeat all summer. This is delicious with Mexican potatoes.
- Cheeseburger wrap. Another old-school OYS recipe that readers love.
- Slow Cooker Italian Beef. This is a great hands-off recipe when you don't want to heat the kitchen.
Do you need a DELICIOUS Gluten-Free summer salad to bring to parties this summer? Try this new Caprese Salad; I shared it on my sister site, Gluten-Free Italian Eats. It's so perfect with anything off the grill!
