Fresh, juicy peaches are part of the ‘fiesta’ of delicious soft fruits available to us in the summer months. There is nothing quite like biting into a fleshy, sweet peach and feeling the juice dribble down your chin!
This is a super summer salad – you can serve the peaches cold, or but for a different twist lightly grill them and serve warm with the goats cheese crumbled over the top. Very delicious and a lovely addition to a summer party or barbecue. Quite healthy too!
Serves: 4
Preparation Time: 15 minutes (for cold) 25 minutes (grilled peaches)
Method
- Whisk together your dressing ingredients and season to taste.
- Lay most of the arugula on the bottom, then top with the peach wedges.
- Fold the ham around the peaches to make it look attractive.
- Crumble the goat’s cheese or feta over the top, then add a few more arugula leaves.
- Spoon over dressing.
Tip: If you are going to grill the peaches, don’t place too near the grill – they will burn and possibly have an unpleasant taste.
