Method:
- PLACE the oil, vinegar, and pepper in a jar and shake until combined. Combine 2 tablespoons of the dressing mixture with the honey and brush over the cut surfaces of the peaches.
- HEAT a non-stick grill pan (or BBQ) to high. Place peaches cut side down, on the hot grill.

- PLACE rocket, sliced grilled peaches, red onion, pecans, and fresh goat cheese in a large salad bowl. Drizzle with the remaining salad dressing. Gently toss and serve immediately.
What's Great About It:
This salad is summery, light and colourful! Although salads are typically a savoury dish, adding fruit switches up the flavour a bit and can help you achieve your recommended serves of fruit per day.
