7 recipes to make for Labor Day weekend 🇺🇸
|
Hi Friends Reader Labor Day weekend is almost here, and for me it always feels like one last chance to soak up summer, fire up the grill, enjoy all the beautiful produce that's still in season and gather around the table before we start craving all things cozy and fall. So if you're wondering what to make this weekend, I've got you covered! Here are 7 recipes I'd put on my Labor Day menu, from the grill to the sides and, of course, something sweet to finish. 🔥 FIRE UP THE GRILLJuicy, flavorful and made for summer grilling! My Carne Asada is marinated with lots of fresh, bold flavors, then grilled and sliced thin. These wings are bright, citrusy and packed with fresh cilantro-lime flavor, with those irresistible charred edges from the grill. This ribeye is juicy, beautifully charred and simple enough to let all that delicious beefy flavor shine. 🥗 DON'T FORGET THE SIDESEvery cookout needs a good pasta salad! This one is colorful, satisfying and perfect alongside anything coming off the grill. Mediterranean Couscous Salad This couscous salad is a light and refreshing side that pairs beautifully with anything off the grill. Let's enjoy watermelon while we still can! Sweet, juicy watermelon paired with salty feta makes this fresh, refreshing salad the perfect contrast to smoky grilled meats. 🍑 AND FOR DESSERT...Peach Cobbler with Buttermilk Biscuits If you make ONE dessert this weekend, make it this one! I waited all summer for the peaches on my tree to ripen, and this cobbler was absolutely worth the wait. Juicy, honey-sweetened peaches bake underneath fluffy homemade buttermilk biscuits until golden and bubbling. Serve it warm with a big scoop of vanilla ice cream melting into all those peachy juices. The perfect last taste of summer.

Hi Friends Reader You know how much I love seafood, and if there's one thing I'm particularly picky about, it's the quality of the seafood I bring into my kitchen.

Meet my newest recipe: Gochujang Scallop Pasta with Roasted Vegetables The scallops cook straight from frozen in about 10 minutes, and...
Hi Friends Reader Is there anything better than a fall weekend with nowhere you have to be? We’re having a rainy, cold Nor’easter this weekend, and I’m actually kind of loving it. It’s finally chilly enough to turn on the fireplace, curl up with a good book or watch a little too much Netflix, and of course, have something cozy cooking in the kitchen. Honestly, I’m perfectly happy staying home. So if you’re having one of those slow weekends too, I pulled together a little menu of recipes that...
