I’ve been waiting months to make this delicious salad from my friend Amie’s cookbook, Eating Clean. I finally got my hands on some beautiful ripe peaches from Frog Hollow Farms and set out to make this salad. Amie has struggled with chronic pain and multiple ailments including Lyme Disease for as long as I know her. She’s been healing her body with clean eating to help fight the inflammation and created this book to help others dealing with similar issues. If you’re looking for a food detox and you’re not sure how to start, this book is for you. Even if you don’t have health issues, this salad is healthy, fresh and delicious, run out and make it now!
