Parm Frites
(who knows what language that is...?!?!)
This is more of an idea than a recipe... but I an still including it. A couple years ago I visited my friend in Chicago and we went to TASTE. It was awesome. One of our favorite little vendors was this italian resturaunt serving parmesan fries... basically just dumped loads of fresh grated parmesan, garlic, and parsley over hot fresh fries... and it was yummy. Also, one of Z's favorite resturaunts always puts grated parmesan on their fries, so I'm getting on the band wagon. These make a great side for Meatball Subs... which is what we had last night for dinner.
Seasoned french fries
Parmesan
Italian parsley, finely chopped
Garlic salt
I purchase the frozen seasoned fries from the grocery store (becuase I am too lazy to make and season my own) and deep fry them (prepare as stated on package). Immediately (while still super hot) sprinkle with just a tiny bit of garlic salt, and grate a generous amount of parmesan cheese over the top, sprinkle with parsely and toss it all together. Enjoy as a side to a good meal, or a stand alone snack! Yummy!

Grilled Peaches
So while we were on our honeymoon we were on a drive to the fancy expensive real-estate part of the island to dream and 'pick out' our someday-beach-house, and we drove by a farmstand... I found myself squealing for Z to stop and he obliged, pulling into the sandy lot. We bought fresh sweet peaches and berries, and I know it's dirty, but I dove into them as soon as we got in the car. Yuummmmy. Anywho, we made it back to KS with a few of the smallish peaches I didn't consume during the week, and tonight I while I was grilling the rest of my dinner I thought, hey why not? I mean a lot of people grill fruit--
Okay, so results were the happiest 'why not' I have ever created. Drool-worthy. Actually, don't even wait until the next time you already have the grill going, go ahead and fire it up just for these sweeties... it's worth it.

Peaches
butter
whipped cream cheese
honey
fresh mint leaves
Cut peaches in half and removes pits. Brush with melted butter and place face up on a medium-ish heated grill. After Approx 5 mins flip to the faces down, and grill this side for 5 mins. flip face up again, rotate to create crossed grill marks. After 5 mins flip face down and rotate for grill marks. Remove peaches to a plate and put about a teaspoon of cream cheese (i like using the 'whipped' cream cheese, it's lighter) and drizzle with honey. Garnish with fresh mint...
Beautiful and ridiculously yummy summer dessert. You're welcome.
