With the weather finally warming up, summer seems to be on the horizon. To Minnesotans, this means outdoor party season! It’s time to start filling your calendar with grill outs, picnics, and patio happy hours. What’s better than kicking back with friends to share an outdoor meal?

Solution: Summer foods that are delicious and completely low maintenance. Here are a few of my favorite easy appetizers for summer. They are all simple to prepare and require little prep.
