Here was supper tonight. Diced pancetta and browned to a dark color in a skillet with a finely chopped clove of garlic. Sauted small shrimp in the pancetta drippings. Drained and set aside to cool to almost room temperature.
Made a Peach Vinaigrette dressing. And tossed it in fresh greens with diced peaches and sliced tomatoes.
Plated the salad and topped with the pancetta and shrimp; some more fresh peach; and sprinkles of gorgonzola.

Since the peaches are yellow fleshed instead of white, I didn't feel I had to be a purist. So I made bellini's the other night with peaches and raspberries. *hic*.
I only have 3 peaches left. With all the great ideas you guys have, I'm now thinking of going to pick more! I'm crazy.

Hi Ann, this thread is subsequent to my original where I was soliciting recipes for the 20 pounds of peaches we picked last Sat. at a pick-your-own place near us. The thread title is "Savory or Spicy Peach Recipes?" I WISH I had peaches growing in my yard!

Peaches sliced in half, in a baking dish, topped with a bit of butter, brown sugar and pinoli, in the oven for a half hour at 200C, top with fresh cut mint.
Oh, ONE MORE (this is really Piemontese): Sliced Peaches in Moscato wine, that's it...kind of like peach soup. Awesome.
