GRILLING TONIGHT?  Who says that you can't have yummy summer fare without nightshades: tomatoes, peppers, white potato, and eggplant. Grill you favorite chicken or fish recipe tonight, and add PEACH AND RICOTTA SALAD for something new and festive. I hope your summer is filled with special treats of all kinds. Be well!

My very best,

Caroline

PEACH AND RICOTTA SALAD

A beautiful summer’s delight that comes to life with white peaches, low fat ricotta, pistachios, and lemoncello. How bad is that?    Serves 4.

1 cup low fat ricotta

Agave or honey

1-2 tablespoons fresh lemon

1/3 cup finely chopped pistachios

4 medium white peaches, unpeeled and thinly sliced

Drizzle olive oil

Lemoncello, chilled

On four individual salad plates, add ¼ cup ricotta, smooth into a small circle. Top with 1 teaspoon agave or honey and 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Sprinkle lightly with pistachios. Top with sliced peaches, a tiny drizzle of olive oil, additional pistachios, and 1 tablespoon lemoncello. Serve immediately.
