Fruit are great as desserts, but they have so many benefits that they aso make for some great combinations with vegetables, especially salads!
Her is an example as peaches and luccola are in season:
Vegan Peach & Luccola Salad!
INGREDIENTS: For 1 person
-Peach: half a fresh one
-Luccola: 3 leaves
-Lemon: 1 sixth/1 wedge
-Salt: a pinch (to taste)
-Ground black pepper (to taste)
-Olive oil (EV): 1 large tablespoon
RECIPE:
-Chill a plate.
-Cut each luccola sprig in 8 cm long parts. Drop into a bowl.
-Peel peach, and cut 1 half into 5 wedges (if you do not eat the rest right away, sprikle with lemon juice, wrap in cellophane paper and keep in the fridge!).
-Add in the bowl lemon juice, olive oil and salt. Lightly toss.
-Add peach wedges and toss again just a little. Place onto a plate with an eye for decoration.
-Grind black pepper over the salad!
Simple, easy and healthy!
NOTE:
Eat at once or luccola will change colour and turn soggy.
Don’t forget to bring some white wine!

SHIZUOKA GOURMET 
A vegan salad! I’m so excited! It’s sad, but most of the salads here actually are simply lettuce + tomatoes + onions + chicken + dressing.
I’ve tried making a lot of other ones (fruit, bean, veggie burger, asian with tofu…), but got sick of the repeats. This’ll be fun.
So simple and yet so delicious!
