Foodie Friday: 16 Juicy Peach Recipes


Peach season sure is sweet, but it's also short. In my part of the world they will be done by the first of September.  So now is the time to get cooking this  recipe roundup of sweet and savory dishes. They are all just peachy!


Frozen Aperol Peach Margarita
It feels like 102 degrees here in The Hudson Valley, and I sure could use one (or three) of these frosty cocktails! Serve these as your house drink for your next patio party. 

Bacon Wrapped Grilled Peaches with Balsamic Glaze
The perfect marriage of sweet and savory. That glaze really makes the dish. I went to buy a balsamic glaze at a local gourmet store. It was $42! So I tried to make it myself, and it was easy and super good. It's a simple reduction. 

Stone Fruit Trifle with Lemon Mousse
Oh how yummy looking! That mousse looks light as air. This is a showstopper, and not that hard. If you can believe, Martha says you can use a store bought poundcake!

Bacon, Lettuce, & Grilled Peach Sandwich
Move over BLT, the BLP is having a moment. These grilled peaches are a fresh take on a summer standby.

Peach Cobbler with Cinnamon Swirl Biscuits
My childhood summers were made of this! I remember helping Grandma make the biscuits. You can cook and serve straight from the pan.

Fresh Peach Salsa
This is a good recipe to bookmark, as it is so versatile. Serve it with chips, salmon, tacos and more. So easy, too.

Strawberry Peach Ice Cream
This ice cream is the real deal, and you will need an ice cream machine to make it. It looks totally worth the effort. And if you have been wanting an ice cream maker, Sur La Table has some on sale. See the recipe at....

Goat Cheese Stuffed Turkey Burgers with Tangy Peach BBQ Sauce
Goat cheese is absolutely delicious, with its' cream  cheese like texture, stuffed in a burger. I have done it. Fruit always makes BBQ sauce better. This beautiful burger has only 300 calories.

Peaches & Cream Crepes
I have a crepe pan and an electric crepe maker, and I can't tell you when I last used either one. This recipe may get that job done. Aren't they beautiful? Sur La Table has a crepe maker on sale.
Williams Sonoma

Tomato, Peach, and Burrata Salad
Perhaps the most beautiful salad I have ever seen. Summer on a plate. This recipe is easy to throw together and simply packed with fresh flavors!

Peach Gin and Tonics
My family is big on Gin & Tonics this summer - everyone except for me. I make a good one for everyone, but none look as tasty as these.

Air Fryer Peaches
This process has never crossed my mind, but it sure looks yummy. It's simple and so summery!

Grilled Peach Crostini with Mascarpone and Honey
This is a perfect summer appetizer. Besides learning to make the crostini, the recipe offers hints on how to pit peaches, slice them, and grill them.

Peach Pie with Bourbon Caramel Sauce
What a beautiful pie! The lattice top crust is elevated with a sprinkle of sanding sugar for a little extra crunch. Then there is that bourbon caramel sauce. I know it is yummy, as I often make it. The author states that this is an"easy" pie to make.
Lemon Blossoms

3-Ingredient Pesto Grilled Chicken With Peaches
With only three ingredients, you can have a summer weeknight dinner on the table in no time.

Grilled Peach Salad, Maple Bourbon Dressing
Here's another delicious looking salad. The dressing is just over the top with fabulous flavors.

Fresh blueberries, coconut rum and ginger ale combine to make a festive drink with just the right hint of tropical paradise. The coconut flakes on the rim are a fun final touch

I have never actually had moscato, but it sounds good. With sweet flavors of peaches and orange blossoms, it is perfect for summer. What a delightful drink it creates!

Popsicle Cocktails & Mocktails
These chic cocktails are made with champagne, but if you want to make them non-alcoholic, you can substitute sparkling water.

Foodie Friday:: 16 "Eggscellent" Recipes For Easter & Beyond

 

Here we are at Passover and Easter Weekend. Who will be dying eggs? I am trying the naturally dyed egg method (scroll down for tips )Today's post features a recipe roundup of egg dishes that are perfect for Easter and beyond. 


Breakfast Charcuterie Board
Here's major inspiration for a company breakfast. It's a perfect combination of sweet and savory.

Everything Cheesy Potato and Egg Breakfast Casserole
Once I was served a similar casserole. My longtime friend, Dierdre, had made it. It was perhaps the best thing I ever ate. Maybe it was the hangover?  What’s not to love about cheesy potatoes, baked eggs, and crispy bacon? 

Smoked Salmon Deviled Eggs
I have made these before. Trust me, they were a hit, not to mention so attractive. Each bite is a palate pleaser.

Frothy Orange Creamsicle Cocktail
Refreshing and delicious, this is the perfect brunch cocktail. It's made with vodka, and the froth is beaten egg whites. 

Baked Egg Boats
This dish is basically a quiche that uses a hollowed out baguette as its base instead of a buttery pie crust. A terrific twist on a classic.

Jalapeno Cilantro Hash Stuffed Portobellos
The recipe author says it best: "These jalapeno hash stuffed portobellos are deliciously salty from the bacon with a kick of spice and topped off with a poached runny egg."

Caprese Baked Eggs
If you are like me and love a Caprese Salad, you will love this dish.The runny yolk of the eggs is perfect for dipping crusty bread into. What a fabulous idea for a recipe!

Naturally Dyed Easter Eggs
I try to keep toxins out of my life as much as possible, especially in food. So I am trying this food based egg dying method this year. I think the colors are simply beautiful. 

Pesto Tomato, Egg & Avocado Breakfast Salad
I love salad for breakfast. In fact I have some form of it almost every day. What a healthy start to the day!

Eggs Benedict Bread Pudding
A savory pudding is combined with everyone's favorite brunch bite, Eggs Benedict. Yum!

The Ultimate Egg Salad Sandwich
It's all about the fresh herbs in this recipe. A combination of mayo and yogurt keeps it light and fresh.

Sausage and Egg Breakfast Dumplings
These are fun! The dumpling wrappers are store bought, making this an easy recipe. Dipping sauces and chopsticks required!

Greek Steak Salad French Bread with Soft Boiled Eggs + Feta
Isn't this a gorgeous salad? Or is it a sandwich? Sounds like heaven to me.

Soft Polenta With Poached Egg and Parmesan
Polenta is lovely. This treatment with a poached egg and greens really elevate the classic.

Buffalo, Bacon, and Goat Cheese Deviled Eggs
I am always on the lookout for inspired deviled egg recipes. Because life is too short to serve them plain. A must make!

Potato & Egg Salad With Pesto
My family always thinks that everything is better with pesto. I make it often. This colorful salad will b e a spring sensation.
