Great summer time meals

I love the spring and summer seasons. Even though I am not a big fan of chicken or beef, I love BBQs. I think it is more the smell than anything. I know going to a bbq can sabotage your weight loss journey but it doesn't have to. Here is a great recipe you can make or even take the ingredients to a bbq, plus I am also going to have a great summery dessert recipe that wont overtake your diet.
