Pinterest is where I go for inspiration. The platform has a way of surfacing the perfect trending, in-season, and topical—not to mention gorgeous—recipes. Allrecipes' Pinterest page is no exception. Our most popular recipes on Pinterest in June were a creative collection of crave-worthy dishes and warm weather winners.
If last month's top Pinterest recipes hinted at the start of the summer, this month's are a full-on celebration of the season. From nostalgic snacks to summery salads, plus some of our all-time top-rated dishes, not one of this month's top-pinned recipes is a miss. Read on for recipe inspiration that will make you want to run to your kitchen and get cooking.
Clone of a Cracker Jack
One bite of these copycat Cracker Jacks and you'll be transported to childhood, sitting at a baseball game in the summer sun. "For a thicker coating of caramel, reduce the popped popcorn to 10 cups," recommends recipe author themoodyfoodie.
Cold Greek Tortellini Salad

One scroll on social media lately and it becomes evident that pasta salads are having a *moment*. This one, in particular, combines the best of both worlds: tangy, refreshing Greek salad and comforting, tortellini-laden pasta salad.
Absolutely Fabulous Greek Salad Dressing
Okay, so maybe it's Greek salads that are having a *moment* after all. "This Greek salad dressing is the 'secret recipe' from the pizzeria that I work at," writes recipe author DANIELLE M. "This is the best dressing I have ever tasted, people offer to buy it constantly, but if we sold it we wouldn't be able to make enough to use in the restaurant!"
BLT Dip
This BLT-inspired dip is everything you want in a summer appetizer: cold, crowd-pleasing, and super simple with just four ingredients. Plus it's got all the flavors of your favorite summer sandwich, in a more convenient, portable, and shareable format.
Steak Fingers
You know and love chicken fingers, but have you ever tried the beef version? Sort of like a cross between chicken strips and chicken-fried steak, these steak fingers are irresistibly crunchy and a surefire soon-to-be family favorite.
Boiled Peanuts

Name a better Southern summer snack than boiled peanuts...I'll wait. These sweet-and-salty, poppable peanuts are a classic for a reason. To kick them up a notch in spice, take a tip from reviewers and add some Old Bay or Creole seasoning to the boiling liquid.
Walking Strawberry Pretzel Salad

Inspired by strawberry pretzel salad and walking tacos, this new recipe from Get Cookin' host Nicole McLaughlin is an instant classic. Read all about why we love it so much, then try it for yourself this summer.
World's Best Lasagna

One of our top 10 recipes of all time, this World's Best Lasagna has quite the folklore and following behind it, and for good reason. If you've somehow never made it, there's never been a better time; Prep and assemble the lasagna ahead of time, then bake it off after a long day at the beach, pool, or park.
Barbecued Beef
With over 1,100 5-star ratings, it's no surprise this slow-cooker barbecued beef shows up on list after list of top recipes. "Have made this several times for family gatherings and I'm always, without fail, asked for the recipe," raves reviewer mamerlin. "It's been our 4th of July meal for [the] past 3 years so that we can spend the entire day out on the water and dinner is virtually done when we get back."
Roasted Okra
Okra is in the prime of its season in June and July, so there's there been a better time to try out this recipe (or one of our other top-rated okra recipes). Simple and easy, this recipe is a great preparation for those who are new to the vegetable. Serve alongside grilled proteins or as an appetizer with a simple dipping sauce.
