As summer settles in and the days stay warm and bright, it’s natural for our cravings to shift. The rich, hearty meals that felt comforting in winter often start to feel a little too heavy—and we begin to long for foods that feel light, fresh, and full of life.
But eating lighter doesn’t mean eating less or feeling restricted. In fact, summer is a wonderful time to tune in to your body, embrace seasonal ingredients, and explore simple ways to feel nourished and energized—whether you’re eating at home or sharing a meal at a potluck.
