Quinoa Caprese Salad
Say goodbye to summer this Labor Day by serving up a big bowl of this quinoa caprese salad!
Can you believe Labor Day is just 2 weeks away? Normally this makes me a little sad, but with how crappy this summer was, I’ve never been more excited for the end of it. However, with that being said, that doesn’t mean there aren’t a few things about summer that I’ll really miss.
Like the amazing produce, for one. Is anyone else going to miss those giant tomatoes, juicy peaches and plump strawberries you find at the farmers market? I love fall produce, like pumpkin, pears and squash, but there’s just nothing quite like biting into a perfectly ripe peach on a hot summer day.
I’ll also miss the warm weather, the longer days, the beautiful sunsets. I’ll miss wearing tank tops, shorts and flip flops all day without having to bundle up. I’ll really miss the sounds and smells of summer, like the laughter of kids outside playing, the smell of barbecues and fresh lemonade. These are things I’ll definitely miss, but good lord am I ready for fall.
Anyone else with me?
