California Harvest Salad

California Harvest Salad

This is the perfect summer salad combining some of California’s freshest and most abundant produce.  The mix of flavors is sweet and crunchy and the textures together are wonderful.  Bring it to your next neighborhood barbecue, or it makes a great substitute salad for any weeknight dinner.

The ingredients are simple and abundant.  Sweet peaches, crisp red onion, roasted pecans, and crumbled feta top a bounty of blanched green beans that I found at my local Food 4 Less!
