You have been the host
BBQs and backyard cookouts all season long, but when Labor Day approaches, you know summer is coming to an end. (Although the official last day of summer isn’t for a few more weeks!) After all, school will be back in session and football will start before you know it, so you’ll want to say goodbye to cooking season with a bang. To kick things off, these Labor Day appetizers will kick off the long weekend in the tastiest way possible. Here you will find appealing bites, party dips and other summer recipes that can be combined with your Labor Day menu.
Planning a burger and hotdog party for the main event? Try kicking things off with something light and fresh, like grilled watermelon and avocado dip. Or choose coconut shrimp and mango salsa. And since you’re sure to miss these summer vegetables when the colder weather sets in, you’ll want to use eggplant, corn, and zucchini recipes. Try Ree Drummond’s corn fritters or the crispy fried zucchini with ranch dressing for dipping. No matter what you serve, make sure you have your summer cocktails ready to toast the end of the season!
