One of the things I love about Summer is all the local fresh produce. We enjoy stopping at area farmer’s markets throughout the season to pick from our local farmers’ bounty.
Peaches are a favorite. Nothing beats a tree-ripened peach for juicy goodness and flavor! Of course, there are many uses for peaches beyond eating out of hand and baking. They also go nicely on a salad, like today’s recipe.
Here I paired peaches with blueberries and cantaloupe, which are also coming in fresh this time of year. Then I made a delicious homemade poppyseed dressing. It’s a bit of a throwback, retro type of dressing. It’s very tasty, and goes wonderfully with the fruits.
You can use this dressing on pretty much any fruit salad. So as the wheel of the year turns and different fruits take center stage, the dressing is still on call.
