Ingredient Spotlight: Peaches


I will begin by saying I am not a fruit eater. But tonight I did have peaches, as I made the pulled pork recipe below. It was delicious, and I enjoyed the peaches, too. Ingredient spotlight posts are my favorite, and I hope that you like them too. This recipe roundup is simply
peachy keen!

 

Peach Julep
The classic mint julep gets a twist with mouth-watering Peach Julep! I may be the only one that I know that has not tried a mint julep. This recipe may change that record.

Peach Tart
{Vegan & Gluten Free}
This dish is almost too pretty to eat. And it is made with coconut condensed milk, which I have not seen before. Such a special recipe!

Chipotle Pulled Pork with 
Pickled Peaches 
How's that for alliteration? I have been thinking about pulled pork lately, so I actually made this recipe last night. The peaches were grilled rather than pickled, and I used pork tenderloin. 
We loved it.

Honey-Glazed Roasted Peaches with Mascarpone
What a simple but delicious dessert.

Peach Panzanella Salad With Burrata And Bacon
As the author states, "this healthy-ish salad goes well beyond the regular old panzanella each and every meal of the day."  It's sweet, savory, crunchy, and gooey perfectiion! 

Southern Double Crusted Cinnamon Sugar Peach Cobbler
I don't think that I ever visited either of my two Kentucky grandmothers without a peach cobbler awaiting my arrival. This recipe features both a cobbler dough (so biscuits) and an oat crumble topping.  Double the fun!

Grilled Chicken and Peach Saltimbocca Skewers
Classic chicken saltimbocca gets a summertime twist with this grilled-skewer recipe. The peaches balance the saltiness of the prosciutto.  I will be making this dish yet this Summer.

Vegan Peach Tart
Life is too short not to pretty up a dessert. This may be the healthiest peach dish ever - it not only is vegan, it's refined sugar free, AND gluten free.

Peach Basil Crostini
This may be the perfect summer appetizer. The presentation is elegant, and will make your guests feel special. It's all topped off with a drizzle of honey. Yum!

Summer Peach and Berry Sorbet Cake
What a beauty! If you can find the frozen coconut flavored dessert, this is said to be an easy recipe.
 It sure is a showstopper.

Frozen Peach Mojito
Just the thing for a hot lazy afternoon!

Sweet & Sticky Baby Back Ribs With Peach Salsa
Oh how mouthwatering! Low and slow is one of the secrets to this dish. That salsa is the other.

Peach & Cherry Upside 
Down Cake
For all of you non bakers, this recipe uses a yellow cake mix. You can do this!

Grilled Peach Salad, Maple Bourbon Dressing
This stunning salad features textures and flavors galore. The over the top dressing is both sweet and savory. It will leave all of the adults swooning!

Maple Whisky Peach Fritters
The "Shop This" household is a bit obsessed with apple fritters.  This could be our next obsession. And isn't the name of the blog below perfect for this recipe? You gotta laugh.

3-Ingredient Pesto-Grilled Chicken with Peaches
What a great sounding dish! The recipe calls for store bought pesto sauce. I would make my own, which comes together in a flash and isn't oily like the jar variety. Grilling the peaches caramelizes their natural sugars and adds a smoky flavor to the stone fruit, turning them into a delicious side. 

Peach Melba
Now this is a classic dessert, that still looks as elegant as ever. In Escoffier's words, “Pêche Melba is a simple dish made up of tender and very ripe peaches, vanilla ice cream, and a purée of sugared raspberry. Any variation on this recipe ruins the delicate balance of its taste.” I may have a problem, I change every recipe.
