Do you love fruit salads? This Peach Basil Salad recipe is so refreshing and easy to make. A friend of ours made this recipe for us and we love it.
I often eat cottage cheese with fruit, but this mixture of fresh peaches with the flavor of basil and sweetness of honey creates a tasty dish.
This salad recipe calls for basil, but you can substitute spinach or another dark, leafy green.
You can enjoy this salad any time of day.
