Summer is right around the corner.  What does that mean?  Lots of get togethers with friends and family, barbecues, and plenty of time around the grill.  Summer entertaining is my favorite.  The cooking goes on outside, less clean up, sun, friends, and fun drinks.  So today I am here with over 25 recipes to cover all your summer entertaining needs. So invite your friends over and get ready for a delicious weekend!
