Can you believe it’s September?? And can you believe it’s already Labor Day?! This summer FLEW by (surprise, surprise), and I don’t know about you, but for me it was full of food, friends, travel, relaxation, and more food! 

I’m not too sure how I feel about this late to the party summer Labor Day. Yes, the unofficial end to summer is prolonged, but I’m already knee deep in new classes and I’m pretty sure there’s not a school around that is yet to be in session.

Despite my sharpened pencils, we still need to give summer an ((unofficial)) goodbye. 

And what better way to do that than with one last backyard BBQ hurrah! 

While I cannot wait for pumpkin, apple, and cranberry everything, let’s relish in the flavors of sweet summer one last time and celebrate Labor Day with these veggie-rific meat free salad recipes for Labor Day you didn’t even know you needed at your party…

  1. What a great round up! I love these fresh recipes- and they all look beautiful! I do have to admit, UCSD doesn’t start until the end of September, and when I used to work there- it would drag out forever! Unfortunately summer conference was crazy and I always longed for the school year to start earlier lol!

    1. Thanks Elizabeth! It must be hard not to start the school year when everyone around you has started…I totally get it! 🙂

  2. Yum! What a great round-up. I’ve been meaning to try that watermelon wedge salad from Joy the Baker- so creative.
