Don't Blow Your Vacation Budget On Dining Out — Here Are 21 Easy Breezy Recipes To Make While You Unwind This Spring Break
Spring break has arrived (thank the lord), which means we are swapping sad desk lunches and on-the-go granola bars for poolside cocktails and cookouts and prioritizing good times over long times. But just because we are having fun doesn't mean we aren't making great food to go with it. Whether you want to make the most out of your girls' trip Airbnb by using the kitchen every day, you're just a stressed-out parent dreaming of a tropical escape — even if it's only to the backyard — or you're planning the ultimate girls' trip or bachelor bash, we've got you covered. 1. Frozen Tropical Colada Tasty This alcohol-free blended drink will make summer feel that much closer. Add a splash (or two) of coconut-flavored rum if you're looking for a more adult version of this already perfect drink. 2. Super-Crispy, Oven-Baked Asparagus Fries 3. Air-fried Bourbon Chicken Skewers Tasty Even if you call yourself a klutz in the kitchen, you can make these chicken skewers. Air-fried for extra convenience and marinated in a bold and boozy sauce, this is the most fun way to eat chicken thighs. 4. BLT Pasta Salad Love & Lemons / Via 5. Fruit Salad Ice Cream Sundae A sundae bar is the cherry on top to a perfect vacation. With an oat crumble and grilled fruit, this sundae is unlike any you've had before. 6. Jalapeño Popper Dip 8. Jerk Cauliflower Tacos with Mango Hot Sauce 9. Seven Layer Dip Cups 10. Mint Julep Love and Lemons / Via 11. Boozy Bubbly Sherbet Punch My longstanding petition to bring back sherbet has never had more support than when a punchbowl filled with this nostalgic drink debuted at the party. 12. Crispy Hot Honey Salmon Tenders 13. Ice Cream Bites No friend vacation is complete without a movie night. You'll have plenty of time to make these while your friends decide what to watch by scrolling through eeverryyy streaming platform!! Pop them in the freezer until sweet tooth intermission and you're friends will wish they'd rolled out a red carpet for you and your ice cream bites. 16. Sheet Pan Breakfast Sandwich Party prep includes a plan for the morning after, and that's why these batch-made breakfast sandwiches will make getting out of bed the next day much more appealing. 18. Bang Bang Shrimp 19. Deep Dish Pizza Making pizza at home from scratch can seem like a high-maintenance dinner, but that is only because you haven't tried this Detroit-style recipe from A Beautiful Mess. This recipe is easy to double for a crowd and topping the pizzas is a great group activity for an easy-going dinner party. 20. Sheet-Pan Steak Fajitas Tasty A quick, nutritious meal you could (but likely shouldn't) make with your eyes closed. You can prep the veggies and flank steak in advance so when you come home from a relaxing day at the beach, you can come home to a relaxing evening in the kitchen, too. 21. Chicken Caesar Wrap What's Gaby Cooking? / Via Chicken Caesar wraps are the ideal crowd pleaser you can eat at the beach, on the couch, or in the car on the way to a party. This recipe features toasted panko breadcrumbs that are mixed into the salad for an extra crunchy bite without having to bread the chicken in advance!
