There is nothing better than enjoying sweet peaches when they are at their peak. This salad is one of my favorite ways to use them because it balances that natural sweetness with the richness of avocado and a tangy citrus dressing.

It makes a lovely side dish for a backyard barbecue or a light lunch on a warm day. If you want to make it feel extra special, lightly toast the almonds in a pan for a minute until they smell fragrant and nutty.

Ingredients

  • 3 ripe peaches, sliced into wedges
  • 1 large avocado, sliced
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 4 cups mixed salad greens
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the slivered almonds and sugar in a small skillet over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Cook while stirring constantly for about 3 minutes until the sugar melts and coats the almonds, then remove from the heat to cool.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper to create the dressing.

  4. 4

    Arrange the mixed greens on a large platter or in a salad bowl.

  5. 5

    Top the greens with the peach wedges and sliced avocado.

  6. 6

    Drizzle the dressing over the salad and sprinkle the sugared almonds on top just before serving.

💡 Tips

Store any leftover dressing in the fridge for up to a week. If you are preparing this ahead of time, wait to add the avocado and dressing until right before you serve so everything stays fresh and crisp.
