Chopped Peach & Veggie Salad

Written By J Holland

Saying it’s hot in July in Marietta, Georgia usually gets the universal reply “No DUH”, but this heat waves seems to be particularly cruel and unusual. I think I’d rather try to bake eggplant parm in my mailbox than to turn my oven on.

Using some of the items that came in the basket this week I threw together a crisp and bright salad.

Ingredients:

  • 1 bunch Kale leaves, stems removed. Finely chop and massaged with a pinch of salt and olive oil

  • 1-2 cucumbers, diced

  • 2 ripe peaches, diced or thinly sliced

  • 1 tomato, chopped

  • Red onion, thinly sliced (optional)

  • 2 apples, diced

  • 1/2 cup crumbled Feta cheese

    Dressing: Honey Balsamic Dressng

  • 3 tbsp Olive oil

  • 2 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar

  • 1 tbsp Honey

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

  • Seasonings to taste

    Instructions:

  • 1.Prep Kale and let it sit for 1-2 minutes.

  • 2. Chop all ingredients and mix well

  • 3. Whisk the dressing ingredients together and toss with the salad. Chill for at least 15 minutes before serving.
