I almost missed this, but August is National Peach Month. I have always loved peaches, but now I have a greater understanding of why. Both in China and Japan the peach is associated with immortality and a long life. It is one of the “Three Blessed Fruits” in Buddhism and symbolizes longevity, so eating peaches may help me live longer.
That is just one reason I love peaches now. However, having lived in Georgia for several years, I came to love the state fruit. There is nothing like a good Georgia peach. I used to love making peach pies, but hated peeling peaches until I discovered the Pampered Chef serrated peeler, which makes peeling peaches so easy.
This week I thought I would share a few of my favorite Pampered Chef peach recipes and a few of my new favorite vegan peach recipes. Let me know which ones are your favorites.
Peaches and Cream Dessert Nachos (easily made vegan)
Grilled Peach Salad (I substituted the pork tenderloin for various Gardein Mandarin Crispy chick’n and Tofutti Cream Cheese for the goat cheese)
Napa Cabbage and Peach Salad (I substituted Gardein Mandarin Crispy chick’n for the chicken)
Fresh Peach Sorbet (I substituted agave for honey)
