Happy Monday Ladies and Gents!

We are coming off of a fun and exhausting weekend at a friends ranch in Eastern Washington. We went with the family and with two other families and the kids had the time of their lives. Horseback riding, corn picking, fishing and just hanging out and playing. It was so fun and relaxing and the country side and farm lands of Eastern Washington are just gorgeous.

Grilled Peach Kale Salad with Honey Almond Clusters, and Crispy ProsciuttoBut with weekends like these come non stop eating and drinking and you do things like make whiskey flavored giant marshmallows and then toasting and gorging on a half dozen of them. And then you are so tired when you get home that you eat a whole pizza. By yourself. Grilled Peach Kale Salad with Honey Almond Clusters, and Crispy Prosciutto

So then you get home and realize that you need to eat a bunch of salad. Like this gorgeous salad that features ripe juicy grilled peaches, crispy prosciutto and little crunchy clusters of honey caramelized almonds. The dressing is full of grilled peaches and honey mustard- plus I love the little crispy poppy seeds too. This is so delicious and the perfect Summer dinner- enjoy!!
