SUMMER DINNER

When summer arrives usually there is an explosion of colour, and became orre simple find excuse to meet friends, usually during winter we decide a date and a place but if you have the opportunity to have a friends with a big terrace or a garden why don't organize a summer dinner?
Decide a date and the guests, ask if they have intolerance ( I have a friend of mine that is really intolerant on dairy products so I know how to switch dairy products with vegan products and yep food tastes delicious).

Drink and beverage: there is the classic wine but why don't do a fresh and delicous sangria? You need to have fresh fruit, you can find inspiration for its receipe here and here , red wine and I use also ice to keep it fresh and put it into fridge until 5 minutes before the event.
Then if between guest there is someone that don't drinks alchol, serves a variety of fruit juices and smoothie, ice tea and water.

For food: easy, delicious and cheap...seems impossible? Using fantasy and seasonal products it is ok, do you want to have fish? choose sardines if you marinate them in olive oil, onion,salt and herbs you will have a delious dish to serve with toasted bread. 
pasta's salad is always a good choiche because it is a dishthat everyone loves, and yep, it is quiet cheap.
Do you want to try something new? why don't do a gazpacho, it is a perfect mix with sangria, sardines, and or grilled meat (well chicken and turkey could be amazing - you don't need to buy meat and there are a lot of cheap and delicious receipes).


For dessert: my favourite choiche during summer is ice cream with fruit salad.

The truth is that you can spend a lot of time preparing it, and you'll gues will adore everything, but the most beautiful thing will be the time spent together, laughing, watc hing something, talking. quality time.
