We’re sharing June Menu Ideas today!
June is one of those months that feels like a big transition as the littles are home for the summer, vacations are underway, and summer camps and college prep begin.
Take your time and ease into new schedules and routines whenever you can and simplify tasks where possible.
Once you catch your breath, be sure to enjoy the bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables available at your local farmstand.
Then savor every juicy bite!

June Menu Ideas and Things to Keep in Mind
June is a great month to invite a new friend to lunch, enjoy the botanical gardens, a picnic by the lake, or a summer concert series.
It’s also a great time to try simple farm-to-table recipes, quick and easy snack recipes, and fruity mocktails to help make entertaining more relaxing.
Speaking of relaxing, we’re looking forward to trying these rainy-day recipes for those afternoon showers that always seem to set in earlier than we anticipate.

I love any help I can get for the month. So I am thanking you for all of these amazing June menu ideas CoCo. I always appreciate the inspiration you send my way.
YUM… so many amazing ideas. Both the Salmon Fillet with Peach Salsa and the Pineapple Salmon sound amazing right now!
How is it JUNE??? Holy smokes! Wasn’t it just Mother’s Day? Definitely trying out those smoothie recipes. I am trying to have a smoothie for breakfast in the morning – its a great way to pack in fruits, veggies, flax seed and more.
I also want to try the Mediterranean Chickpea bowl. . . so much inspiration and so little time . . .
Let’s just put summer on pause for a while. Ok? Good. Let’s do that.
These menu ideas sound amazing! There are some really good ones this month!
