Labor Day weekend is always tinged with just a hint of bittersweetness.
But, I say, let’s not wave goodbye to summer just yet!
Enjoy the sunny days and late summer fruit (that’s peaches and apples here in NY and NJ).
Avoid to-do lists and grill as many things – including stone fruit – as possible.
… and look out for my post on VRAI on packing that perfect fall picnic coming up this week!
In the meantime, while you’re relaxing, here are some fun and easy ideas for your Labor Day grilling endeavors:
Grilled peach and cheddar sandwiches
Grilled endive with preserved lemons and za’taar yogurt
Tricolore salad with grilled eggplant
Eggplant with tahini and meyer lemon dressing (I love some great grill marks!)
and finish it all of with some Almond-coconut peach crumble
You’ll find me by the lake with a good book (reading Tana French’s latest).

I’m not sure whether I would choose the cheddar and peach sandwich or the peach crumble (probably both). Great round up!

Thanks so much! Cheddar & peach sandwich for me, I think 😉
