Naan Tri Tip Summer Garden Board
Naan Tri Tip Summer Garden Board–“mini-bite” Farmer’s Market bites. Layer veggies on naan dippers with tri tip, corn, tomatoes, pickle, spreads, and basil.
Friends, are you running to the Farmer’s Market like I have been? I love going once a week and grabbing a few things that I can’t live without :) Like for this Naan Tri Tip Summer Garden Board.
Hospitality in the summer is .. well, so fun. Not only do we get to eat outside, we get to eat fresh, beautiful food. This post is inspired by one I shared on RE quite a few years ago, Tri Tip Crostini. Soooo pretty!
Naan Tri Tip Summer Garden Board
It doesn’t have to be complicated, either. The other night we served a couple salads and this Naan Tri Tip Garden Board.
This is a fun spread, and everyone builds their own bites (thus you need the little toothpicks or skewers).
Ingredients to buy for tri tip board
Naan dippers – you can find these at Wamart or Costco. They also freeze well!
Then head to the Farmer’s Market and pick up fresh corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, and basil (a lot of basil–so good!)
I’ve had a few readers write and ask how we cook our tri tip, so a post will be coming your way on this, but for now, use leftover tri tip for this board.
Then of course dill pickles, red onion, and the BEST aioli (have you tried it yet?) Trader Joe’s aioli garlic mustard sauce!
Don’t forget the skewers to hold together the little bites (optional, of course).
We love the Naan dippers. They are great for the Epic Greek Charcuterie Board.
Why hospitality matters
Also in summer, hospitality makes me and my family happy.
Here’s why:
- It forces us to get to know people in a new way.
- We form new friendships, which we all know is healthy.
- We learn to be better listeners and more compassionate toward others’ stories.
- We use our own stories and share wisdom from what we’ve learned with others.
- We see people lean in to possibly hearing something new, or seeing things in a new way. This is particularly important in this world that we live in now!
- Hospitality makes us better people.
- We learn more about love.
- We leave the table feeling more connected, and more like we belong!
Isn’t this a great list? A great list of reminders of why we need to stretch ourselves and open our homes!
Connection is the energy …
I love this quote by Brene’ Brown (one of my favorite authors): “Connection is the energy that is created between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued; when they can give and receive without judgment.”
She also shares that “belonging” is the innate human desire to be part of something larger than we are.
Friends, this is why we love to share our table with others. It’s worth the effort, time, money, and sharing of our families.
