As August approaches and peach season is in full force, a favourite meal is fresh peaches, grilled and served with pork chops. Add some creamy Brie and dinner is ready on a hot summer day!
Grilled Pork Chops, Peaches and Brie
Make this dinner when the peaches from the market ripen. Peaches made any number of ways happens on the day they dictate! Bring them home a bit underripe and keep them on the counter, where you can watch them and know when ripe. Only put ripe peaches in the refrigerator if you must.
