grilled peaches - I need to add amaretto next time, I think.
The rest of my plate contained vegetables from both the farmers' market and my own garden. I didn't have any buns (local or not), so we ate our burgers with a knife and fork. How very sophisticated. Do you still call it a burger when there's no bread?
On the plate:
- ground beef patties - Smith Family Farm, VA
- tomatoes - Stafford, VA
- peaches - grilled up, can't remember the name of the VA vendor
- new potatoes and vidalia onions (rubbed with salt and olive oil and cooked over the grill) - Stafford, VA
- banana peppers, yellow squash, zucchini - my garden!
yellow squash and zucchini harvested from my garden June 24, 2012
I just realized that all my ingredients came from VA! I walk through the markets so jealous of all the produce. My garden has been a slow producer so far. We harvested about a pound of squash and half pound of banana peppers, so those got grilled up last night too. I hope by the end of the summer to have a whole dish all from my home garden.
I've never had grilled peaches, I'll have to try that....when the guilt of not eating local subsides.
ReplyDeleteGrilled meals are the best--love the peaches (which would taste amazing with amaretto, my goodness).
ReplyDeletelove Smith Family Farms...good meat. This look delicious.
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so glad you liked the beef from Smith Family Farms! We're really happy with them too!
ReplyDeleteI grill nectarines. One of my friends suggests using balsamic vinegar on the peaches, but amaretto sounds tastier.
ReplyDeleteI am with you in hoping for a whole meal from the garden in a month or so...that meal looks amazing.
ReplyDeleteOK, this is really unfair because I am just about to head out for dinner and I am soooo hungry! ;-) Amaretto on peaches--wow, that sounds great!
ReplyDeleteWe used to get quite a bit of our beef from Smith. They're not far from us. Once summer hits we eat a lot of VA produce, eggs, and meat. It's also easy to get local honey, jams, and wine. Your meal looks wonderful!
ReplyDeleteNice summer evening meal. I would still call it a burger w/o a bun!
