One of the best things about summer is the delicious fruit that is in season!
For those needing a bit of inspiration, this has got to be one of my favourite salads YET – mostly because of the fragrance, colour and texture. It’s light, and best served COLD.

1 Large dessert peach, diced ½ mango, diced
