Hi Ashley! I think a variety of sides are essential to a barbeque or holiday meal – they are what I go for first! We are grilling steak tonight and I’m doing a saute of asparagus, small yellow squash and onion, all from our garden.

That sounds incredible! I wish we had fresh produce here! Not for a few more months 🙁
