We have been having a great summer with lots of outdoor cooking both at home and while traveling in the RV. These easy, delicious potatoes are perfect whether made on a gas grill, over a campfire, or on a charcoal fire. They are the perfect side for whatever else is being cooked up, and the leftovers make great fried potatoes in the morning.

Sweet Corn Risotto with Shrimp #FarmersMarketWeek
It is sweet corn season in Michigan. Everywhere you look, there are tables of sweet corn. Farmers' Markets, Roadside Stands, Front Yards, Local Gardens. Our favorite place to get sweet corn is from a stand that opens each year called Potato Joe's. He has, hands down, the best sweet corn around.

Summer Chicken Stew #FarmersMarketWeek
I call this Summer Chicken Stew, not only because it is chock-full of the flavors of the season, but also because it is cooked using a slow cooker, perfect for hot summer days when you don't want to heat up the house.
Fiskesuppe; #EattheWorld meets #MoviesandMunchies
A delicious, creamy fish chowder perfect as a starter or a light meal. This is one of the best fish chowders that I have ever enjoyed. The pop of dill and lemon added right before serving is a game-changer.
