Farmers market. But they don’t hold a candle to homegrown ones. Unfortunately I can’t grow tomatoes every year. |

Crab cakes, corn on the cob, tomato and basil (and mozzarella with a splash of olive oil and balsamic vinegar) , peach raspberry pie for dessert.

Funny, I think of stuffed peppers as a fall meal. I love them, and my mom used to make them on the first day of school (In September in my home town, where it was actually cool by early September). |
Ditto the farmers market. And not the greenhouse ones being sold now. A good tomato won’t be ready for another month. |
Yes! The first home grown tomato of the summer always goes into a BLT (or two). The second gets sliced with basil and mozzarella, drizzled with olive oil and a sprinkling of sea salt. Can’t wait! |
| Half of you are just naming random summer foods. Op said MEAL. The ideal summer meal is obviously a plate from a backyard grill out: hot dog, hamburger, baked beans, potato salad, maybe some BBQ chips, and s’mores for dessert. That is a summer meal. |
