Peach Salad II with Orange Poppyseed Dressing
Report
This is my go-to Peach Salad, the one that makes an appearance alongside everything all summer long! The combination of flavours in this just works so well together - juicy sweet peaches, peppery rocket, creamy salty pops of feta, soft crunch of walnuts and a nutty poppyseed dressing with a hint of orange flavour.(PS In case you are wondering, Peach Salad I is my luxe version involving fresh mozzarella and prosciutto. It's practically a centrepiece in itself!)
