Summer Tomato and Peach Salad
Published: Aug 17, 2016 · Updated: Aug 2, 2021 · This post may contain affiliate links.
This late summer salad is perfect for using ripe tomatoes and peaches of the garden or farm market variety— not the kind that come with stickers on them! Fresh local tomatoes and peaches seem to reach their peak of flavor at the same time, and are a surprisingly compatible duo. Walnuts or pecans add a surprising twist to this easy salad.
