We’re having out-of-town friends to dinner tonight, so it’s been an afternoon of prepping beautiful farmers’ market veggies for roasting.

I have multicolored baby carrots

And cauliflower in 2 colors, destined to be Smitten Kitchen’s Cauliflower Salad with Dates and Pistachios. This is such a great recipe; I’ve had it on repeat all year.
I also grilled some pineapple planks for fried rice. And I have two salmon fillets for roasting, too! The oven will be busy.

I’m also putting together a charcuterie board with cheese, crackers, grapes, marcona almonds, sopressata salami, stuffed olives…if I can fit it all on there. Maybe two boards…
How are you spending your Labor Day? (If you’re in the USA, of course.)

















That sounds like a pretty amazing spread! The veggies look so good 🙂
