Foodie Tuesday: Peach and Tomato Salad from Carla Hall's Soul Food Cookbook

Okay- so today I decided I'd talk about one of my favorite recipe that my mom makes: the Peach and Tomato Salad. I bought this book for my mom for... either her birthday or Mother's Day. I think Mother's Day because I remember I held onto it for a while and her birthday isn't too far after Mother's Day so I'd probably just give it to her for Mother's Day instead of her birthday.

Anyway that's not the important thing about the recipe... this just tastes like summer. New Jersey also has amazing peaches and tomatoes so it's really easy to find good ones. My dad actually grows some tomatoes too so I think my mom used one of his tomatoes with some heirloom tomatoes. It's really good.

I don't want to post the whole recipe because I'd rather you guys buy the book- I'm not sure of any copyright laws when it comes to recipes... but we use Tomatoes, Peaches, Onions, Apple Cider Vinegar I think we use Olive Oil in it too... and it calls for peppers and a hot chille... we just use one type of pepper in with it I think cause my parents and grandparents can't really handle that much spiciness. The flavors all work really well together and it just tastes like Summer in New Jersey in a salad. It's really good.

This is what her salad looks like in the book.

So that is the Foodie Tuesday for Today! Hope you like it! Let me know if you want me to write more about favorite recipes or things like that too!

Bye!
