Summer salad

Summer salad

Here in the Northwest, the summer fruit is at its peak.  The peaches are perfect right now and the blackberries are everywhere, dark and full, ready to be picked.  I wanted a light lunch incorporating all this amazing fruit I have on my counter.

I just took mixed greens, added almonds slivers (would have been fantastic with hazelnuts I think too), and put the fruit on top.  For dressing I used this recipe for champagne vinaigrette.  So good and incredibly easy.

What’s your favorite way to enjoy summer fruit?

Oh, and if you live in the Northwest, get out there and get picking!
