Ingredients

  • 8 large fresh strawberries - halved
  • 2 large ripe peaches - cut into quarters or sixths
  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 cups baby spinach
  • 1 cup sugar snap peas - trimmed
  • 1/2 cup whole almonds - unsalted, roasted and roughly crushed

Zesty Ginger Dressing

  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest - (heaped)
  • 1 tsp ginger - (freshly grated, heaped)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pinch Freshly ground black pepper - or to taste

Instructions

  • Place strawberries, peaches, avocado oil, and black pepper into a bowl.
  • Stir carefully to make sure the oil coats the fruit.
  • Heat grill to medium and place fruit face down on the grill surface. Cook until you see “grill lines” (around 3-4 minutes), then flip over and cook for a few more minutes.
  • Monitor the fruit as it cooks and remove it when ready. Set aside and keep warm.
  • While the fruit is grilling, prepare the zesty ginger dressing. Add all dressing ingredients into a small bowl and whisk well to combine.
  • Build the summer salad by placing a bed of spinach at the bottom of a medium salad bowl, then top with sugar snap peas, warm grilled fruit, and toasted crushed almonds.
  • Drizzle with dressing and serve immediately. Enjoy!
