    As the summer starts winding down and the school year quickly approaches, it’s time to break out some delicious, simple make-ahead recipes. These 5 Recipes To Make In August are easy to follow, can be made ahead of time, and the leftovers are fantastic for school lunches!

    What’s In Season During August?

    One piece of advice that I live by, is to eat with the seasons! I base the flavors of a menu off of the herbs and plants that are growing that time of year. August has so much to offer, so click here to find the full list of seasonal produce local to your area.

    • Apples
    • Corn
    • Mint
    • Lemons
    • Onions
    • Strawberries
    • Avocado
    • Basil
    • Cucumbers
    • Potatoes
    • Tomatoes
    • Zucchini

    August is one of those months that is always busy; it’s hectic whether you’re sending kids back to school or coming home after a vacation. This menu offers you an achievable meal plan that you can do at your own pace throughout the month.

    All 5 of the Recipes To Make In August can be prepared in 10 minutes or less, and you’ll already have most of the ingredients in your kitchen!

    Items To Help You Make These Recipes

    • Mixing Bowls –  I like to use mixing bowls that have airtight lids. They serve a dual purpose, with a lot of flexibility when preparing a meal.
    • Knife Set – A cook is only as good as their knives… that may not be the exact phrase, but I think it’s very true.
    • Casserole Dish – You can use this pan for many recipes, including the Breakfast Casserole and the Sliders on this menu.
    • Baking Sheet – Non-Stick baking sheets are used for various things, including sheet pan meals, cookie recipes, and even sheet cakes.
