We are beating the heat this summer with this Cool as a Cucumber Peach Salad! Cucumbers are cool and hydrating when summer temperatures soar. Peaches are sweet and juicy and abundant this time of year. Mix them together with this tangy vinaigrette and it is sooooo good!
A few surprises …I wasn’t sure where we were going with this one when Ari kept going on and on about how he hates cucumbers. I had no idea! I thought the cucumber was a pretty benign vegetable. Doesn’t everybody like cucumbers?? It’s so easy to make this salad and his reaction to the cucumbers was priceless. Even he was surprised!
