Summer is not over – at least not in the garden.
Here in Georgia the kids are back in school and somehow that signals the end of summer. But I’m not buying it! There’s plenty of summer left to enjoy (and maybe even save some of) the best produce of the year. In my latest US News & World Report post, I share 8 of the best summer produce picks including these figs, grapes, okra and more. Get the details over on the Eat & Run Blog right now.
And if you’re wondering about this recipe, it’s another one of my no-recipe recipes. To make this Fig, Walnut & Honey Toast just spread ricotta cheese on your favorite toast. Top with sliced fresh figs, walnuts and a drizzle of honey. It’s a perfect summer breakfast!

Marisa, this looks like it’s straight out of a William Sonoma magazine, I love it! So simple and elegant, I can’t wait to make it for the holidays! Plus, I was just telling my husband I’ve never had a fig that wasn’t dried!
