This is a quick an easy salad that is always a hit and is super tasty, and very fresh with the mint, lime, peach and Asian flavours. Is always a winner with the family and the kids can pick the vegies out that they like to eat. Guests always love this one and it is always the first bowl to be empty!

Is very simple so is easy for me to just whip up and throw some steaks on the bbq and there you have a very easy summer dinner. Love it!
