Make the most of summer weekends and long weekends with these easy barbecue recipes. From delicious spicy lamb skewers to a range of fresh and tasty salads like watermelon salad or Greek salad. There's also a stuffed garlic bread that goes so well with meat and salad!
Top 5 Easy Barbecue Recipes
These lamb skewers take just 10 minutes prep time and are so juicy and flavoured with a delicious Middle Eastern rosemary garlic lemon marinade to them!
2 - Xinjiang Lamb Skewers
These lamb skewers are more Chinese in flavour, actually from Xinjiang where cumin lamb skewers are so popular. The cumin really lifts the flavour of the lamb and I promise this is worth getting the charcoal out for!
3 - Watermelon Salad
Summer is all about watermelon and watermelon salad. This takes just 5 minutes to put together but it might be all everyone is talking about!
4 - Greek Salad
There's a reason why Greek salad is such a popular classic dish. It's fresh, delicious and yet has a beautiful creaminess thanks to feta cheese. What's not to love?
5 - Stuffed Garlic Bread
This stuffed garlic bread is filled with delicious sliced ham, tomato pesto and two types of cheese. I call this a hasselback bread!
So tell me Dear Reader, have you been doing much entertaining these holidays? Is there something that you love to eat at barbecues?
