Asparagus: Fresh asparagus is one of the best foods of summer, along with homemade popsicles and grilled corn on the cob, of course. There's a reason that most asparagus recipes call for little more than salt and pepper when it comes to seasoning - fresh seasonal asparagus, like grilled corn on the cob, is just so delicious all on it's own! If you're grilling outdoors, try this basic 
grilled asparagus recipe dressed in a mustard vinaigrette (pictured). Or, for a light lunch, try this easy asparagus soup made from asparagus and just 4 more ingredients, or a summery asparagus pasta salad. Zucchini: Expecting a huge crop of zucchini or just can't resist all those sunny summer squashes calling your name at the local farmer's market? Zucchini is one vegetable that most kids will approve of, whether it's in a fun finger food like these vegetable tacos with zucchini, or just simply heated on it's own with a bit of seasoning, as in this simple zucchini side dish. Breaded and baked zucchini is always a hit.
