A Timely Fruit Salad Recipe

We're surrounded by good deals on organic stone fruit these days. Sunflower leads the pack, with organic peaches and nectarines for $1.99 a pound and organic red or black plums for just 99 cents a pound through Wednesday. You'll also find organic red or black plums for $1.49 a pound at Sprouts through then, and Alfalfa's matching Sunflower's $1.99 price for organic peaches and nectarines all the way through August 2nd. I was pleased with the fruit salad I tossed together last Friday, just a simple mix of chopped peaches, nectarines, and plums with a squeeze of lemon, a crack of pepper, and a few ribbons of fresh basil from my herb garden. If you're looking for something a little spiffier, I just encountered the perfect recipe in the current issue of Bon Appetit, stone fruit slaw.
