Grilled Broccolini


grilled vegetables make for the perfect summer side, or even main dish.  in fact my life revolves around them during the warmer months; everything from zucchini to corn to even fruit, there is something about cooking and eating outside in the summer heat that just imprints a permanent on my face. 


this long weekend was no exception.  following some much needed beach time & WMBL baseball playoffs, mr. handsome and i took to the grill for a little BBQ action.  on the menu:  maple-soy salmon and some grilled broccolini.  simple, healthy, and perfect for summer.
all in all, a great conclusion to a wonderful family-filled long weekend, before sinking my life into 3 hours of the bachelorette finale. why do i do this to myself?

cheers.xo.
