Strawberry Lemonade
During my last pregnancy I discovered strawberry lemonade at Ruby Tuesday. I seriously thought I’d died and gone to heaven! Ever since, it’s been one of our favorite drinks. Nothing could be more perfect on a hot summer afternoon! –Mellyn 
Lemon Basil Rice
This quick dish is a great way to use leftover rice. Serve it warm or cold — as a side or a main course. The light flavor is mild enough that even my picky kids really enjoyed it…unlike the first version that was filled with curry and red pepper! We liked the sweet of the mandarin oranges with it, as well. –Mellyn

Lemon Fluff
–From the recipes of Norma L.

Bran Muffins
From Julie L.
These are some of my all-time favorite muffins! I like to double or even triple the batter. It’ll keep for several days in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Don’t stir it after storing –just pour and use. We like them for breakfast with butter and jam or as a side with corn chowder for dinner. The kids also eat them for snacks. Good eats! –Mellyn

Cool and refreshing! Great for a fancy summer party. I adapted this from an old tuna salad that my mom had. Yes, I know this sounds “different,” but if you like salmon and lemon together, you should try this. The salmon flavor is so mild and the lemon shines. I was very pleased with the sweet meal it made.
