Buy it, chop it, eat it! Don’t over think food. Good ingredients = good food. The fresher the food the better your recipe. Grab whatever fresh fruit you have available and make a salad. It’s truly that easy!

Anytime you have sweeter ingredients you should then think about salt and/or spice. I’ve added delicious peaches and tart blackberries to this salad. So I chose to pair my fruits with a jalapeño lime dressing. And it works! Try out new flavors and expand your palate. I promise it won’t disappoint!
