This peach and basil salad makes the perfect side dish for a summer breakfast. The salad is not sweet but rather tangy with a subtle spice. It’s as if fresh fruit got a little bit of tangy dressing on it to delight your senses! This salad would be great served over spinach, on the side of an omelet or piece of quiche.. or served with cottage cheese. The color is gorgeous! You could also use nectarines if you don’t have peaches. If you wanted to add some fresh berries to this salad they would go nicely. So many options! Enjoy!
