For my next installment in Peach Week, I’m showing y’all a really easy, seemingly elevated, and absolutely delicious appetizer or sharable snack: Peach Burrata Flatbread. My mom started making flatbreads regularly a couple years ago, and it kind of rubbed off on me. I came up with this recipe to highlight peaches in a more savory way, and make something other than a drink or dessert for once.
Peach Salsa
Welcome to Peach Week—a whole week of celebrating my favorite summer fruit! This week, I’ll be sharing all kinds of peachy recipes here and over on my Instagram. Cocktails, snacks, desserts, everything featuring juicy, delicious peaches. First up: Peach Salsa.
My Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies
Happy National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day! I usually roll my eyes at all these food holidays, but any excuse to bake cookies is good enough in my book. Chocolate chip cookies are a timeless classic, and nothing beats one warm out of the oven.
Pimento Cheese Sausage Balls
It’s almost picnic and tailgate season! That means I’m going to be making lots of snacks and treats (and sangria, of course) to share with large groups. One of my favorite tailgate treats is sausage balls. I usually end up making two batches: one to share, and one for myself. While I have my go-to, tried and true sausage balls recipe, I decided to kick it up a notch with another favorite Southern snack: pimento cheese.
Simply Southern Cheese Grits
I absolutely love grits. I don’t know how old I was the first time I had them, but I was young enough for their deliciousness to be engrained in my mind forever. My parents and both sets of grandparents made them almost every weekend, and often loaded them up with cheese. So as far as I’m concerned, cheese grits are the only way to go.
Simply Southern Peach Iced Tea
Did y’all know that August is National Peach Month? Best month ever! This time of year, nothing beats farm-fresh peaches. I stock up at the farmer’s market every weekend. So this week, I’m sharing some of my favorite peachy recipes, on here and over on Instagram. I’m starting with something everyone loves sipping on: peach iced tea!
Strawberry Basil Lemonade
I’m back with another delicious recipe for National Strawberry Month! Check out my Simply Southern Strawberry Jam recipe while you’re here, too!
There is hardly a drink more refreshing on a hot summer day than lemonade (with the exception of sweet tea, of course). It’s a cul-de-sac classic that everyone at any age can enjoy, at almost any occasion, and it’s easy to adjust to other people’s flavor and taste preferences.
Simply Southern Mac & Cheese
I don’t know about y’all, but I could definitely live on macaroni and cheese. It is its own food group in my diet and I am 1000% not ashamed of that.
There’s never a bad time for mac and cheese, if you ask me. Lunch, dinner, mid-afternoon snack…in college, I sometimes even had mac and cheese as a mid-morning snack. There was a cafe in the student center that had some pretty delicious mac and cheese, and I didn’t always want to wait until “real” lunch time to have some.
