This sounds delicious. I tried almost the same thing: Fresh peaches, fresh mozzarella, basil leaves, cut, drizzled with good olive oil and sprinkled with ground kosher salt.

Really yummy.

If you have an ice cream maker... peach sorbet.

3 lbs (about 8 whole) peaches, diced (don't even have to remove skins
1 cup sugar
couple tsp lime juice to taste
salt to taste

Squish it all in the blender til smooth, then press through a fine mesh strainer. Chill for a few hours or overnight and then freeze according to your ice cream maker directions. Move to a freezeable container and freeze for a couple hours til really firm.
I made this last week and it is REALLY easy and REALLY delicious!

Second the peach butter. I used the recipe from Smitten Kitchen and it was delicious. Try not to eat all of it right away!

This sounds great! I'm not huge on tomatoes so what a nice option.

I made peach butter last week. The recipe was from Food In Jars. The author of the cookbook has a blog under the same name. The recipe might be on there.

I froze some peaches so that I can make Spicy Tomato Peach jam. I made two cases last year and gave them out as gifts. It is amazing on grilled cheese sandwiches. I'm waiting until my tomatoes are ripe and until the weather cools down a bit more. That recipe is from the blog Love and Olive Oil.

Great Country Farms in Bluemont, VA. They aren't truly organic but only spray when absolutely necessary. I'm a member of their CSA program. They also have tons of activities for the little ones if you have kids. Admission also gets you in to Bluemont Vineyard across the street for the wine tasting.

I love peach/blackberry crisp which I plan to make tonight but I was wondering about peach jelly or peach butter. If you have any tried and true recipes, please share. I haven't found any that I absolutely love and want to use consistently just yet.

Cooking Light has a peach and blueberry cobbler which is great. I'm sure you could sub the blackberries. Op, where did you go to pick your fruit?

Peach muffins! http://www.tasteofhome.com/Recipes/Peach-Muffins

Fresh peaches are an excellent and worthy addition to white wine sangria.

Do you know how to make jelly? My mother in law makes the most fabulous peach jam. Also a peach and pepper jelly which is amazing with brie on crackers. I can't do jelly, but if you can, peach jelly is just delicious.

Half peach and take out stone. Sprinkle with cinammon and honey and grill face down until warm.
Yum!

I went and picked about 15 lbs of peaches and a couple quarts of blackberries this morning. I plan on making a cobbler with them combined, maybe freeze some of the peaches, but any other suggestions?

TIA!
