The temps are rising and the air is still clear from the winter.
Take your cooking outside ( some of us do year round ) and enjoy the fresh air.
Share your outdoors's recipes in one of the topic areas provided here.
Anything you can cook inside can be cooked outside.

Re: Get Outdoors!
Making pasta primavera outside on the grill tonight. NOW, a gas is preferred for this; but ... it still gets you outside.
Grilling the peppers, squash, mushrooms, and onions first on the grill. Then adding them to a cast iron with garlic, peas. Add red sauce for my version (a bit healthier) and mix to warm up. The pasta, also cooked in a pot on the grill.
Add the pasta and sauce/veggies together in an aluminum pan and top with ricotta, mozzarella and parm. Cover and bake on indirect heat for 30 minutes. Done!!!
It may not have the deep charcoal flavors, but it has a nice grilled flavors in the veggies. Besides ... It doesn't heat up the house; and it is just a different way to cook.
It gets you outside, nice weather and enjoy. The stove is NOT the only way to cook.
