As we all celebrate Labor Day this weekend, we hope you have a chance to slow down and enjoy time with family and friends! And, of course, we have you covered with excellent meal ideas that will keep you eating happy (and healthy)!
If you are serving a crowd, the Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches make one delicious “falling-apart” tender sandwich and they will go great with either the Cucumber Tomato Salad with Green Goddess Dressing or the Hatch Chile Southwest Quinoa! If you are firing up the grill, the mouthwatering Indian-Inspired Chicken Kabobs will definitely impress your guests — and you can serve the Brie and Tomato Toasts while they wait!
Or, if you just need something easy because you have a lot of relaxing to do, the Vietnamese Meatballs are crazy good, plus the Sweet Potato Quesadillas some together so quickly…especially if you cook the sweet potatoes in the slow cooker! Yes, you can do that!
If you’re hitting the farmers’ market, here are some items to consider for your shopping list for this week’s meal ideas: beets, sweet potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, basil, red onions, green onions, bell peppers, zucchini, jalapenos…plus your favorite local meats and breads!
As we say farewell to summer, we hope you have a fun and safe weekend!
