The Chicken Chorizo kebabs look wonderful – I love all the colors!
Gosh, these all look so good! I’m not sure what to make first:)
OMG these all look good the bacon pasta salad the cookies.. ahhhhh. Makes me want to come to your house for Labor day!! lol
The Salsa Verde Burger with Fontina, Watermelon, & Basil looks delish! Will have to give it a try :)
Great ideas! Thanks for sharing
I don’t think I would ever have thought to put watermelon on a burger! But, after discovering how tasty homegrown tomatoes are, and their counterparts grainy and tasteless that just might be an interesting replacement!
These all look wonderful – I love picnic foods. The kaboobs look fantastic, probably my favorite.
Thanks for sharing.
yay for the Peach Crisp recipe! I almost missed that watermelon slice in the burger. I have NEVER heard of that but sounds fun! The macaroni salad we would definitely try! Like the addition of the baby spinach (?) for some greens! Thanks for a great full menu for the end of summer holidays!
Those kebabs have me wanting to cook out now! Mmmm delish!!
Those look really yummy!
That burger sounds so summery and unique!
Wow! This is making me hungry. The peach crisp sounds so good. I don’t know if I can wait for Labor Day to make it.

Mmm, that BLT Mac salad looks so good!

the hot dogs skewers with avocado cilantro dip and the peach crisp sound delicious I have got to try the recipes
Avocado Cilantro dip sounds perfect, specially with all the Avocados! I have two trees in my own backyard!
