May Menu - Goodbye Gravy!


Light the grill and pass the potato salad...it's grilling season!  God bless May, one of my very favorite months.  When fruits and vegetables start to taste real again and my menu takes a dramatic turn from crockpot and gravies to fresh, fresh, fresh!  So if you are eating "clean", you should love this menu! (I am still trying to figure out what "eating clean" is, by the way)

And here is our monthly menu:
