Hi Annette,
Here's what was on our Father's Day menu for my husband: We did a breakfast spread with eggs, bacon, 30-Minute Cinnamon Rolls, and Cheese Danish. For dinner we grilled chicken wings, baked beans, crispy baked fries and stuffed bacon cheeseburgers. (All of his favorites!) For dessert he always requests my chewy chocolate chip cookies!
Let me know if you try any of these!
