Peach-Red Onion salad

I saw the recipe for this in Martha Stewart Living. It looked so refreshing and summery, I had to try it. I feel a little weird posting a recipe for this because it hardly takes any time at all to throw this together. If you aren't a peach fan, I'm sure you could sub in nectarines, plums or even mango and it would still be pretty good. I love peaches, so that's what we have here.


Peach-Red Onion salad
3 ripe, yet still slightly firm peaches
1/4 of a large red onion, thinly sliced
lemon
olive oil
salt & pepper to taste
freshly torn basil (or any herb of your choosing)

Slice the peaches into a bowl. Add thin slices of onion (NOTE: if you have a really strong onion, use a little less, if it's nice and sweet, use a little more). Squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lemon over the salad. Drizzle with a little olive oil and give a few pinches of salt and peppper.

Stir carefully to combine. Top with basil.
Enjoy!
