Today I’m sharing a recipe from my friends Carrian and Cade’s brand. It’s full of fresh twists on family favorites with recipe mashups and unique flavor combinations. I’ve been lucky enough to get a sneak peak preview copy and they even let me pick a recipe to share with you.

Lately I’ve been craving warm weather, picnics, and vegetables. I flipped through their book drooling over all of the recipes, but this one was just calling my name. I’m such a sucker for dill so I knew I’d love this recipe and it fulfills all my cravings. This recipe is perfect for spring and summer picnics, backyard barbecues, and potlucks. It also makes a great lunch or weeknight side dish. You really can’t go wrong with this one.
