This fresh peach 🍑 summer salad 🥗 was a huge hit last night. I highly recommend assembling your salad on a big white platter. It makes all of the colors pop and your guests can clearly see what the ingredients are. Plus, there’s no need to toss it. Just drizzle the dressing lightly over the top. Garnish and set some tongs next to the salad for easy serving.
Peach Summer Salad:
1/2 ice berg lettuce or butter lettuce torn into bite size pieces
1 container wild arugula
6 large fresh peaches, sliced or cut in chunks (don’t peel them)

1 cup torn fresh basil leaves
