TGIF! Kick-start the long-weekend with a barbecue, grilled up in your own backyard. From juicy chicken to perfectly grilled steaks, the possibilities are endless (check out our Summer Grill Guide for extra inspiration) – but to kick off the season, we're going with the classics: burgers, salad and a frozen cocktail.

The drink
Lager and lime slushes A refreshing patio-star you'll be making all summer long. Cheers! (PS. It comes in three flavours, in case you want to mix it up.)

The sides
Grilled panzanella and savoury ramen slaw While we wait for our summer favourites to make their way into season, let's get creative with what's on hand right now, starting with a mixed vegetable and grilled bread salad, and a colourful cabbage slaw.

The main event
Over the top burger Everything you've ever wanted in a burger, plus a little extra: cheese, secret sauce, bacon, onion rings . . . and off-the-charts indulgence. If you're looking for a healthier version – or are serving a few vegetarians – try our tempeh superfood burger, loaded with veg and crisp kale chips.

For dessert 
Raspberry-rhubarb compote T'is the season for long stalks of tangy, sweet rhubarb – so take advantage and serve a bright fruit compote over a simple scoop of vanilla ice cream.
