One of my favorite things about summer is stone fruit. While everyone gets all jazzed about berries (understandably so), stone fruits do not get enough attention.
Sure there’s always a peach cobbler but what about all the other great uses for stone fruits? (I’m sure you see where this is going.) What about how great stone fruits can make a salad?
This recipe uses the sweet peaches to balance out the bitter arugula. It marks the perfect start to any summer meal.
