Recipes to Make for Dad

❤️❤️❤️

Simply Made Eats by Tara

Why is Summer flying by? Here we are already at Father's Day weekend. Eek!

I've been enjoying Summer too much..I slept until 7:30 twice this week, but I think it was just recovering from a lot of sunshine last weekend at the beach. I kept worrying about the kids getting burnt and I was the one who got it the worst.

This weekend we're celebrating all the dads out there. I spoiled my husband a bit and got him some new Victory Nike Golf Shoes with a matching hat. I hope he likes them because he's soooo damn picky.

My dad (not picky at all) is obsessed with espresso right now, and I recently gave him an espresso maker, so I bought him a milk warmer and frother and paired it with one of his favorite chocolate treats, the goo goo cluster.

Now, to the good stuff..here's what I'm cooking this weekend. Oh, I should also mention that my dad is a pescatarian (no meat, just fish).

To the Recipes...

For the Meat Lovers:

My husband is a meat and potatoes guy all the way! These are some of his favorites:

​Blackstone Philly Cheesesteaks: The griddle is always an easy option and these cheesesteaks NEVER disappoint.

​Dutch Oven Pork Chops in a creamy mushroom gravy with Boursin Cheese Mashed Potatoes. This one is great if you're cooking indoors.

​Boneless BBQ Smoked Chicken Thighs paired with Smashed Potato Salad and Cowboy Baked Beans (with ground beef).

Fish Recipes:

My dad's favorites!

​Blackened Mahi Mahi over Coconut Rice. This is a summer must try, especially with the Mango Pico De Gallo.

These Baja Shrimp Tacos are packed full of flavor and feature a Jalapeno Slaw. I can easily down 5 of these.

That's it for this week.

Thanks for reading and Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there!
