Notes
- Add the Dressing Right Before Serving: Don’t add the dressing until you're ready to serve the salad to prevent the lettuce from becoming soggy.
- Choose Ripe Peaches: Ripe, in-season peaches will have the best flavor and level of sweetness. To choose a ripe peach, squeeze it gently to see if it gives slightly. If it is too firm, it is not ripe yet. A ripe peach will also have golden-reddish skin and should not have any green undertones.
- Storing: This peach blueberry salad is best enjoyed immediately, however, leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator with the dressing for up to a day and without the dressing for up to 3 days.
