One of my absolute favorite times of the year is when I transform my backyard into a magical summer dinner party for friends and family. It’s the perfect season to gather, enjoy the warm evenings, and savor delicious food outdoors!
I'm always on the lookout for fresh summer recipes that highlight the best of what's in season—vibrant fruits, crisp vegetables, and bold flavors. Recently, I had the pleasure of collaborating with my dear friend, Lauren Furey, to create a collection of new favorite dishes. These recipes are simple, seasonal, and perfect for any summer gathering!
Butterbean Hummus
The first recipe Lauren and I created together was a beautiful, creamy Butterbean Hummus. It’s incredibly quick and easy—ready in under five minutes!
We paired it with crisp, fresh veggies and our signature biscuit crackers for the ultimate snack spread. Light, flavorful, and satisfying, this hummus is perfect for any summer gathering or a simple, healthy bite anytime.

Biscuit Panzanella Salad
This fresh take on a Southern classic, inspired by Nathalie Dupree, puts a creative spin on a beloved recipe featured in my cookbook. It’s the perfect way to turn leftover biscuits into something new and delicious!
This Biscuit Panzanella Salad makes the most of seasonal fruits and vegetables, while also putting leftovers to good use. It’s full of fresh flavor and offers a deliciously balanced combination of tastes.

Peach Shortcake Biscuits
I’m always looking for fun ways to turn our biscuits into something sweet and satisfying. Lauren and I came up with these delicious Peach Shortcake Biscuits, featuring homemade whipped cream and juicy, fresh peach slices. It’s the perfect summer dessert—simple, seasonal, and absolutely delightful!
