Still Summer Salad
Near the end of summer, this salad calls my name. It has the perfect balance thanks to the pepperiness from the arugula and the sweetness from the peaches. It's also an easy one to whip up and it pairs well with most main proteins, think chicken, salmon, steak, scallops, whatever you can dream of. Add whatever your favourite protein is on the side and it will elevate this salad to a fully balanced meal that still has the flavour hints of summer!
