Peaches, cucumbers and tomatoes hit their peak in the summer months. This colorful dish is a quick spin on the traditional salad and satisfies the need for a light and crunchy starter. I began making this for my daughter when she started preschool. Preparing this salad together was an effective way to include her in her own meal prep while also getting her excited about the idea of salad.
