An Alfresco Feast for Father’s Day

A picture of a Father’s Day cookout

Treat dearest dad to an outdoor spread of grilled selections and hearty takes on picnic classics this Father’s Day weekend.

Capitalize on fun summer hues in a way that captures the festive mood. Aqua table runners and lime green plates start the scheme that expands with rainbow-colored napkins. Pull out a few plush pillows, and incorporate pillar candles in terra-cotta posts with plants as centerpieces. The merriment is sure to continue comfortably into the evening as conversation flows and memories are both shared and made.

Start with Grilled Vegetable Crudité with Smoky Parmesan Dip, which gives the traditional veggie platter a robust spin. Soft-boiled eggs, green beans, and fresh pesto are flavorful additions to classic potato salad. A colorful slaw also complements marinated skirt steaks. Keep the grill going for dessert—a delicious honey-drizzled fruit pizza puts a final sweet touch on this special day.
