LABOR DAY COOKOUT

Labor Day signals the end of summer for many of us. So we go all out on an outdoor barbecue event. This menu includes some of my favorite light and easy side dishes, most of which are Italian in origin. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I do. See the notes below for easy planning. For other recipe choices, see additional menus at Summer Holiday Cookouts.

Notes: Most of this menu can be prepared early in the day. Refrigerate the dessert for at least one hour. The Peppers and Onions, as well as the Potato Salad, Green Beans and Eggplant Parmesan can be made several hours ahead and kept at room temperature. The Pasta Salad is even better made the day before, refrigerated overnight, then put out about 1 hour before serving, adding the tomatoes at that time. If you know you will have some vegetarian guests, make extra peppers and onions. They make a great sandwich without the sausage, as does the Eggplant Parmesan. This is definitely a menu you can make and still have lots of time to enjoy family and friends.
