Early September Dinners: What to Cook (Sept 6)
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure policy.
This week’s Early September Dinners feature delicious foods that straddle two seasons.
Beginning with Labor Day and ending with an Italian Naples classic. And, of course, a summer treat that makes a delicious bridge between summer and fall.
This week’s dinner menu takes large inspiration from our What to Cook in September post of seasonal foods and recipe ideas for this month.
From zucchini and tomatoes to eggplant, greens, and more.
It’s a healthy, delicious season we’re entering… and I can’t wait.
Here’s what we’re cooking for dinner this week:
Early September Dinners
This week begins on the tail end of a 3-day weekend, culminating in Labor Day grilling, cookouts, and all things BBQ. Here are some fantastic ideas for Monday’s Labor Day feast. Save those leftovers for Tuesday’s taco salad!
On Wednesday we’re making a classic summer vegetable and sausage skillet dinner, perfect for quick and delicious weeknight meals.
Thursday’s seafood choice is Maple Glaze Wild King Salmon with seasonal greens. Choose whichever salmon is freshest at the seafood counter.
Friday’s dinner is a classic Italian favorite featuring eggplant and served over pasta, which is always perfect for Fridays.
The treat this week is summer personified… in cookie form. It’s all things s’mores. If you’re not into cookies, and your not making them over a campfire, you might like:

Monday: Labor Day Cookout
Labor Day deserves an end-of-summer celebratory cookout. We've compiled lots of ideas of delicious and easy food here!
Tuesday: Taco Salad
Labor Day leftovers? Use them all, like grilled corn, veggies, even BBQ chicken with a healthy and delicious taco salad.
Wednesday: Summer Vegetables with Sausage and Potatoes
"This easy one-pot skillet dinner is made with chicken sausage, bell peppers, zucchini, baby red potatoes and fresh herbs."
Thursday: Maple Glazed Wild King Salmon
One of my favorite salmon dinners is super easy and super tasty. Use whatever salmon is freshest in the seafood department of your grocer. Add greens and fresh, sweet tomatoes for a simple and healthy dinner.
Friday: Naples Eggplant Parmesan
A healthy, easy, and quick dinner that's an Italian classic for a reason! Add late summer greens and for added protein, a grilled chicken breast would be delicious!
