The purpose of What’s For Dinner? is to provide you a recipe with items on sale this week, with no more than 10 ingredients, and coming in at under $10 per meal.
I love this time of year. When all of the summer fruits start becoming ripe and are just juicy and sweet. This week’s What For Dinner? Recipe is a little on the gourmet side, but with all of the pork and produce on sale this week, you should still be able to come in at under $10. And you get to grill fruit – what could be better?
