FRESH PEACH SALAD RECIPE WITH BASIL

• Gently fold in basil and chevre. Serve immediately.

MINT & BASIL GRIDDLED PEACH SALAD

Steps:

• Mix the lime zest and juice, oil, mint and basil, then put half in a bowl with the peaches. Meanwhile, cook the quinoa following pack instructions.
• Cook the beans for 3-4 mins until just tender. Meanwhile, griddle the peaches for 1 min on each side. If you don't have a griddle pan, use a large non-stick frying pan with a drop of oil.
• Drain the quinoa and divide between shallow bowls. Toss the warm beans and onion in the remaining mint mixture and pile on top of the quinoa with the lettuce and rocket. Top with the avocado and peaches and scatter over the mint leaves. Serve while still warm.

PEACH CORDIAL

Steps:

• In a gallon glass mayonnaise jar, or other type of crock that can be sealed completely, mix all the ingredients and seal with electrical or duct tape so no aid can get in or liquid can evaporate. Shake gently twice a day until the sugar is dissolved (generally takes 2-3 days) then about every other day so that the mixture is evenly flavored. Now the hard part -- Let sit, for 2 months. Then strain through 4 layers of cheesecloth in a colander. After sediment has settled, siphon off the clear cordial mixture and decant. This is really smooth and friends are still asking if I have the recipe. I hope that you enjoy it.
