Happy Summer! And is there any other season that encourages healthy, fresh and clean eating like summer? We think not. So fire up the grill, bust out the fresh produce and get to trying these five summer recipes that make the most of the season!

1. Beer and Bratburger. Can’t decide between having a brat or a burger? Have BOTH with this recipe!

2. Homemade Lemonade. Skip the premade powdered stuff and make your own lemonade from scratch! Flavorful and natural it’s delicious and perfect to wash down that Bratburger. (Plus, a little birdie tell us, it’s also good spiked with a little vodka or rum!)

3. Strawberry Pavlova. When it’s summer, you don’t want a dessert that’s heavy and rich. You want something light and airy! And this strawberry pavlova recipe is all of that, plus it makes the most of those in-season juicy strawberries. Perfection!

4. Grilled Watermelon. Ever thrown fruit on the grill? It may sound a little strange, but it’s amazing! A little savory, a little smoky and oh-so sweet, you’ll love it.
