"I think we can agree that fresh peaches are just plain good, but this year in Iceland they have been ESPECIALLY GOOD & I've been binge-eating them lately. Found @ bbcgoodfooddotcom, this easy-fix salad recipe (which I modified slightly) is another great way to use fresh peaches in season. - COMMENTS: I entered this recipe as NO COOK because I didn't feel toasting bread was meant to be a cooking method. Additionally, the use of fresh peaches is clearly the main goal of this recipe but in the real world of menu-planning, we all know their "in season" time can be short & there's always a can of peaches on grocery shelves to help us indulge our "out of season" menu planning. ENJOY!"
