Use up those summer peaches with this Pesto Peach Salad! This is not your typical salad, but that’s what makes it stand out. Everything works incredibly well together, this is definitely one of my favorite salads to date. A bed of fresh power greens layered with sweet peaches, bursting cherry tomatoes, and tart pickled red onions, all finished with crunchy pistachios for a nutty flavor and an herby pesto vinaigrette, which is honestly the key to the salads freshness.
