And just like that, the heat wave is officially over! We survived!
I had a wonderful weekend hanging out with friends by the pool and catching up over wine and snacks. All. the. snacks.
When the weather gets really hot, I tend to gravitate towards no-cook snack-type meals versus actually cooking full-blown meals. I’ve been eating a lot of caprese salads, tuna salad with avocado, and noshing on grapes, carrots, cucumbers, and hummus.
Summer time is the best time – even with the surface of the sun-level heat we had this weekend!
Yesterday, I went to a Yoga Sculpt class at the new CorePower Yoga studio over on H Street. Kinda masochistic to go to hot yoga but I just really felt like I needed to sweat out all the rosé! The rest of the day I spent doing laundry, cleaning, and meal prepping for the week.
I made these delicious and simple peach + goat cheese tartines for dinner yesterday. I’ve been seriously craving peaches lately and have been looking for any excuse to eat them. Sweet peaches plus tangy goat cheese with honey topped with a sprinkle of fresh basil is a no-fuss appetizer for a summer night meal. Or if you’re like me, it’d be the meal itself!
I used Trader Joe’s Chevre with Honey, it’s $3 for a 5 ounce log and is one of my all-time favorite Trader Joe’s cheeses. The chevre is wonderful to use on the peach + goat cheese tartines, I also love it crumbled on top of a simple salad (Think arugula and a lemon vinaigrette). It’s so perfectly spreadable on a baguette slice!
Highly encourage you to whip these peach + goat cheese tartines for a snack that only seems fancy 😉
