Slow Roasted Fresh Strawberries, fresh strawberries sprinkled generously with sugar, and lightly with salt and pepper, baked slowly until the strawberries release their juices and slightly caramelize. These strawberries go brilliantly in all kinds of desserts. One of my favorite things about summer is all the fresh fruit in the grocery stores. I almost always tend to buy more than we can eat, that including fresh strawberries, and I wait until the last minute to use them up before they spoil. This summer I started slow roasting half of the strawberries when I buy them. I like to roast them whole instead of slicing them. The berries hold their shape well while roasting coming out plump and luscious.

Slow Roasted Strawberry No Churn Ice Cream
Slow Roasted Strawberry No Churn Ice Cream, an intense, bold strawberry flavor created by roasting fresh strawberries and incorporating them into a no churn ice cream recipe. To celebrate the last few days of summer, we are planning our Labor Day weekend with an America theme potluck, including a backyard BBQ, spectacular pasta salads, easy side dishes that require little cooking time, and for dessert no churn ice cream. It took me a while to get on the no churn ice cream wagon. I wish I had joined in on the fun way to make ice cream a long time ago.
Fried Green Tomato, Bacon and Pimento Sandwich
Fried Green Tomato, Bacon and Pimento Sandwich, homemade pimento cheese, crispy bacon, glorious fried green tomatoes sandwiched between two slices of golden toasted bread. The ultimate summertime sandwich that sings the taste of the South. What do you do when you have leftover fried green tomatoes, crispy bacon, and pimento cheese? You guessed it, make Fried Green Tomato, Bacon, and Pimento Sandwiches. I like to fry a lot of green tomatoes for a meal. We love leftovers. You may ask if they are still crispy leftovers. My recipe for green fried tomatoes lends the best texture for leftovers. I always cook twice the amount of bacon for breakfast, too, for leftovers or to sprinkle on vegetables we have for supper. The pimento cheese is made ahead for a quick sandwich for lunch on most days. Pimento Cheese will keep in the fridge for weeks. An excellent snack to have with crackers watching tv.
Epic Fried Green Tomato BLT Club Sandwich

Two classic sandwiches gloriously combined into one Epic sandwich cut into quarters and held together with toothpicks! As the summer comes to an end, I am getting in as many fried green tomatoes as I can. One of my favorite ways to eat them is in a sandwich. There is just something about all that mayonnaise, a generous sprinkle of salt and pepper sandwiched between to pieces of bread, even toasted. So good! My favorite sandwich is a BLT. And my personal favorite way to eat a BLT is in the style of a club sandwich, epic! When I was a little girl, we lived in Columbia, South America. My Dad worked for Shell Oil Company, and we were part of 100 Americans who worked and lived in a little town in Columbia.
