You must eat this. For lunch today I had a salad of mixed greens with chopped up peaches, goat cheese, walnuts and raspberry vinaigrette. It was yumptious. Consider this my PSA to y'all.

That sounds lovely. And remarkably similar to what I had for lunch.

Your taste is impeccable.

But I had a burrito for dinner. Not tacos. Points off for gaspode.

As long as there was no iceberg lettuce, it sounds good.

I had leftover spareribs, beans w/hot sauce and maduros for dinner. and beer.

We usually go for the mandarin oranges in the rossi house. But now I have a craving for peaches. Yum!

I want to make this. Canned or fresh peaches?

posted by LarryC 26 June | 20:19

fresh fresh peaches, LarryC.

Yeah, jrossi, I've done the apples and the mandarins but today I had the peach brainstorm. And I like it the bestest.

We've had something like this before but with raspberries (which are in season here), totally awesome!

And then there's the ever-awesome strawberries and spinach combo.

We eat alot of salads. The kid's a fan. We're lucky like that.

I've had some very similar salads, and may I say that pumpkin seeds (pepitas) are another very nice addition.

There are no points off for burritos. Burritos are also delicious, but my relationship with them is merely platonic.

ooh. i like the peaches idea. apples are also good, and of course tangerines. i have one suggestion. try adding cranberry-raisins to that salad...i bet it would be yummy!

thanks pode- i'm def gonna try it with peaches.

I don't like goat cheese. How about feta? Feta goes with everything.

(Sounds sooooo tasty.)

Another spin: same salad, sans peaches, plus pear. Pear + goat cheese = heaven on a plate.

Mmmmm!

Last night I had linguine with a sauce of very lightly sauteed tomato, arugula, hot peppers, green onion and garlic, topped with grated kefalograviera (greek) cheese. Yum.

I love hearing what people are cooking (or, preparing, as the case may be).

I'm eating PB on wholegrain right now and wishing it was a delicious salad with fruit/cheese.

[wipes drool from desk]

I do a lot of avocado & mixed greens, shrooms, and grilled chicken or some bacon crumbs.

I forget the name now but on 8th and 21st in chelsea, there is a small place that does fruit-vegetable fusion like this, only fancier. . .I'll eat there before I go.

danf: are you going to spend all this time in NYC without us seeing you?

I had toast for dinner.
