Homegrown Peaches
This year we are pleasantly surprised by our hearty peach crop. Japanese beetles ate the majority of our peaches the previous year and therefore we didn’t expect to have many this year either. Thankfully that isn’t the case. Therefore we’re doing a happy dance because that means we get to enjoy a bunch of yummy peach recipes!
Simple Salad
I don’t know about you but I love an easy recipe and one that doesn’t require heating up the kitchen in the heat of summer. That’s probably why salads usually come to mind when I don’t feel like putting a lot of time and energy into a meal.
Delicious Salad
Not only is this Amazing Peach and Prosciutto Salad delicious but it’s also chuck full of flavor and tantalizing textures. The fresh peaches and blueberries are sweet and juicy and the delicate prosciutto is mildly salty. The addition of mozzarella pearls and fresh basil provide additional texture and flavor.
Pretty Summertime Salad
Years ago I heard that food displays well when served in a white bowl, or on a white plate, or platter. I have definitely found this to be true. The color of the various ingredients really “pop” against the white background.
Salad Dressing
It’s my personal option that Amazing Peach and Prosciutto Salad really doesn’t need dressing. However, having said that, feel free to drizzle your favorite Balsamic Vinaigrette over the top.
