Labor Day heralds the official end of summer, white shoes and barbecues. While we’ve never been ones for tired rules, we do love a Labor Day gathering with friends and family to wring out the last days of summer.
- Panzanella Salad: made with pieces of toasted La Brea Bakery Organic Wheat Loaf and end of summer seasonal heirloom tomatoes, this salad could easily take center stage as a main course.
- Mussels in White Wine Sauce: months containing the letter “r” are back, and so are mussels! Try them in a white wine sauce with plenty of grilled slices of La Brea Bakery Garlic Loaf for dunking.
- Apple Chutney & Prosciutto Melt with Gruyere Cheese and Pears: simple, yet sophisticated. This grilled cheese created by Bakers Royale has the flavors of summer with its fruity notes paired with salty prosciutto and nutty Gruyere cheese, sandwiched between slices of La Brea Bakery Tuscan Loaf.
- Caramelized Telera Ice Cream Sandwich Sliders: you can’t end the summer without something cool and creamy. Summer is all about staying cool, after all, and these ice cream sliders, dreamed up by Melodramablog, made on La Brea Bakery Telera Slider Rolls are the perfect ending to the best season of the year.
