Fruit – Simply Sundays

There are so many delicious peach dessert recipes but this is a simple way to enjoy the fruit without much fuss

Juicy, sweet peaches drizzled with honey and served with creamy & tart mascarpone cheese… mmm

You can use store bought mascarpone or make this copycat version

Add 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/8 of a cup of sour cream and 2 tablespoons of whipping cream

Blend well. You can add a little powdered sugar if you’d prefer some sweetness, but keep in mind we’re going to serve with a drizzle of honey

Each serving is half of a peach, so I’m using 2 large, ripe peaches. Cut in half and remove the pit

Place on a pan and drizzle with olive oil

Heat grill to medium high and grill the peaches face down for 5 minutes, flip and grill another 5-7 minutes

You want the peaches to be softened but not mushy

Remove from grill and let cool slightly

Serve with the mascarpone and a drizzle of honey

Sweet Summer berries, creamy avocados and the crunch of nuts… this salad is the bomb! A flavor bomb!

Oh, and let’s not overlook the sweet and tangy raspberry vinaigrette

This salad belongs on your favorite recipe list

It’s super easy to assemble… only very little chopping and prep work. My kind of salad!

You’ll need field greens, a mix of berries, kiwi, avocado and crunchy nuts

Place 6 cups of field greens in a large bowl

Measure out one cup each of fresh raspberries, blueberries & blackberries. Cut 2 kiwi and 2 avocado into a small dice

Toast 1 cup each of pecans and slivered almonds

Now for the quick assembly

Layer the fruit over the greens and top with the toasted nuts

Fun fact… an avocado is a fruit and actually considered a large berry with one seed. You learn a new thing every day!

The simple Raspberry Vinaigrette gives this fresh salad a bit of acid and is the perfect accompaniment

Mix 1/2 cup of seedless jam, 1/3 cup cider vinegar, 1/4 cup of sugar and 2/3 of a cup of vegetable oil in a jar with a lid or a cruet. Add in 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds and 1 teaspoon of kosher salt

Shake until thoroughly mixed

Drizzle the Raspberry Vinaigrette over each serving

Enjoy!
