super sweet, soft, juicy figs
juicy and sweet white peaches
avocados
I love summer. It's hot and muggy, yes, but you get all the wonderful fruits and vegetables at this time of the year, and most important they're grown here in the US. I especially love the white and yellow cling peaches, black and Italian honey figs, red and green grapes, avocados, and of course strawberries. Avocados have always been a favorite either sweet with milk and sugar or savory in California rolls and Texmex fare. This is also the season for the best tomatoes: beefsteak, cherry, roma or vine ripened cluster.
