Summertime is coming so let’s get prepared!
One of my favorite things about summer is a meal from the grill with all the garden-fresh fruits & veggies! Today, I'm sharing some recipes...everything you need to make a delicious, summer supper using your oils!
Perfect Grilling Marinades
Fire up your summer with essential oil infused marinade! All recipes are enough for 1-2 pounds of protein of your choice.
Citrusy
3/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon grated onion
Juice of 1 lemon
2 drops Orange Vitality
2 Drops Lemon Vitality
1 drop Ginger Vitality
Mediterranean
3/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 clove minced garlic
1 drop Orange Vitality
2 drops Lemon Vitality
1 drop Black Pepper Vitality
Combine all ingredients & pour over meat in a shallow glass bowl or baking pan. Cover & refrigerate for 1-4 hours before grilling. Discard marinade after use.
Rosemary Vitality Roasted Potatoes
Try soaking the potatoes in water for several hours in advance & then drain and dry them thoroughly prior to cooking...this releases the starch & makes for crispier potatoes!
6-8 red potatoes, washed & cubed (peel if you'd like)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 drop Rosemary Vitality
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Toss the potatoes with the remaining ingredients & place on a baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees F for 45-60 minutes under tender & crispy.
Dill Vitality Cucumber Salad
This is a great, easy side dish to use up those garden fresh cucumbers!
2-3 large cucumbers, sliced
Sliced onions & tomatoes - optional
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayo
1/2 tablespoon white vinegar
1 drop Dill Vitality
Salt & pepper to taste
1-3 tablespoons milk for consistency
Mix the dressing ingredients & then add in the veggies.
Strawberry Lemonade
This refreshing summer beverage is made with Lemon Vitality, however lime can be substituted, too!
2 cups strawberries
4 cups water
Juice of 1 lemon
5 drops Lemon Vitality
Agave nectar or honey to taste
Puree strawberries in a blender. Pour into a glass pitcher, add water, lemon juice, Lemon Vitality. Mix well & sweeten with agave or honey to taste.
