August may mark the end of summer, but we still have a few days left to enjoy the pool and relaxation! We are trying to make the most of it and savor every drop while making lasting memories. One of the ways the boys and I spend our days is by making a fun new recipe that is simple and perfect for eating outdoors. We’ve made everything from popsicles to fruit salad. The key is to create something that throws in a vegetable or a fruit and is still fun and delicious for them to eat.
A few years back I accidentally came up with this simple recipe for a quiche. It is great because it uses ingredients you likely already have on hand. The best part about this quiche recipe is that kids love it and it gets them eating broccoli! Now, our 3 year old adores broccoli, but the 7 year old would rather gag than allow anything green to enter his body. The quiche is a great way to disguise it all and the cheese makes up for everything! We make ours in mini muffin tins so that they are bite sized and perfect for little hands or the lunch box.

Those broccoli bites do look very tasty! I love broccoli and cheese combined!
Oh those look yummy. I bet my anti-veggie son would even eat them.
I like to make Zucchini Scramble with all our zucchini.
Wow, those cheesy quiche bites looks so good! I love using ingredients already in the house for something tasty
I think my favorite summer recipe would be anything in that Brad Paisley cook book. He is just too cool. 🙂
With as hot as it gets (over a 100) I like to make a fruit salad from many different types of fruit.
Oh my these look so good. I am a huge broccoli fan so I am definitely going to try these!
These look so yummy. I cant wait to try making them.
These look really yummy! I’ll have to try them in the near future.

My favorite summer meal is anything on the grill! Got to love grilled cheeseburgers.
Mmm, these look amazing. Anything cheesy and broccoli (i?), is good in my book!
I love pasta salad!
YUM! What a delicious snack. Thanks for the share!
I love freezing chunks of watermelon and letting the kids eat it outside on a hot day. I also love basil corn made with fresh corn from our neighbors’ garden and fresh basil from our own garden.
I love BBQing ribs on my grill, its my favorite summer dinner!
My favorite is Snicker Salad. It includes Snickers miniature bars, apple slices, Cool-Whip, and cream cheese. Thanks.

That kind of bite would make me very happy!!! Your little man knows what’s good!
We love veggie kabobs and jucy lucys (burgers w/ cheese in the middle) in the summer!!
I love making pasta salads and potato salads
I love ribs on the grill! Just ribs, with a rub, on the grill for 4-5 hours on indirect heat. I add a piece of oak that I drizzle with water on a regular basis to get a smoky flavor. Love it! It’s a ton of work but SO worth it!
