This roundup is a little dessert heavy, but what else would you expect from a blog named Put On Your Cake Pants?! Without further ado, here they are:

Cherry chipotle salsa (dairy and gluten-free)
Dill potato salad (dairy and gluten-free)
Jalapeño ranch potato salad (gluten-free)

What a great collection! Love all the berries involved! I’ll have to try some of the recipes later in the summer. This weekend we are busy preparing to move. 🙂
