Man I love good peaches.
Fresh and raw or
Try em grilled with vanilla ice cream and mint
Or in a salad with goat cheese, toasted nuts and prosciutto
Or stuffed into a pork roast with lots of butter and thyme

:drool:

Yeah - usually we whip up a recipe of pork loin chops with peach sauce... it's really quite tasty. Especially served up with a nice Oregon pinot noir:

Yea peaches! I just this very instant came in from plucking about 30 of them off the tree in our yard. We also have an apricot tree but it's our first year here and I didn't know anything about when to pick them and the birds got to them practically overnight.

Good dish ideas there OGR. I'm especially looking forward to trying them grilled with vanilla ice cream.

I wonder how they'd be with bacon wrapped around 'em.

Cut your room temp peaches into 8th's, wrap in thinly sliced bacon or pancetta, and sear them 'til just brown in a pan or on a grill, then toss into a salad or just serve 'em as is. Toothpicks will help if you go with the grill.

Grilled stone fruit of any kind with vanilla ice cream is crazy good. Just cut em in half and lay em flesh side down on the grill for a short time, then add to a bowl with ice cream and drizzle with a little honey or maybe a mint syrup.

A frost killed off tons of trees in our area this year. it sucks. the ones we are getting are from alabama and are just not as good as ones that come from closer to home. Frost killed off all the blueberries this year, we didn't get a one.

We picked blueberries in Oregon on our family vacation a few weeks back... kids got over 3lbs in about 30 minutes. And get this: $1.25/lb.

:drool:

We had blueberry.... issues... for days. :D

Haha! But at $1.25/lb, I'd embrace the subsequent "issues". I've never had fresh blueberries from the vine/bush/tree. Jeez, I don't even know how they grow. :o:

Hey Laura, I realize it's just not the same but have you ever tried dried blueberries? Like raisons but better because they're blueberries. I just came across them and they work okay as a (dare I say it) substitute. Well..at least a sub to the little container of "fresh" from the grocery store.

They grow on bushes and are usually very productive:

I've seen these at Costco in 1.5lb bags but have never tried them. What's the flavor like? I'd imagine it's more concentrated, which would probably be quite tasty...

Yep, got them at Costco and they are indeed very concentrated. A bit too much like candy so consumption happens in moderation.

If you get 'em let us know what you think.

Dancin' over rocks n' roots!
I have blueberry bushes at my house and they're delicious!!! I too have had dried blueberries (use them with granola and yogurt) and they're good, but in moderation because they are like candy!

Dried cherries...mmmmm...I have a cookie recipe that uses them and tastes just like black forest cake :drool:

All I had for peaches this summer was a 20 lb box of Donut peaches that were saved out of the harvest for me. They went quick, and my bowels with them.

My current favorite is grilled peaches (halved peaches rolled in butter and brown sugar) with some strawberry shortcake from the bakery I work at and some vanilla ice cream.

MONEY.
