This is one of my go to weeknight dinners because it comes together in under twenty minutes. The charred courgettes get this incredible smoky sweetness from the barbecue sauce, and then you top them with creamy manouri cheese that just melts into all those gorgeous char marks. Courgettes are packed with vitamins and fiber while being super low in calories, so you can feel good about loading your plate. The whole thing is so simple and honestly costs very little to make. It's become my favorite way to use up courgettes from the market.

My go to drink for summer gatherings is this refreshing Beergarita, and let me tell you, it's a total crowd pleaser.

It's incredibly budget friendly since you're probably already stocking most of these ingredients anyway.

Quinoa is one of my favorite ingredients since it's a complete protein with all nine essential amino acids, making it so satisfying and perfect for keeping energy levels steady. The combination of papaya, red bell pepper, and fresh cilantro brings vibrant flavors and colors, while the rice wine vinegar and orange zest add just the right brightness. Best part is the ingredient list is simple and affordable, yet feels fancy enough to impress anyone at your table.
