Caitlin's Salad

romaine
tomatoes, diced
red onion, thinly sliced
avocado, diced
mango, diced
honey-roasted peanuts


Toss all ingredients together, and serve with EATING RIGHT Pomegranate & Blueberry dressing (found at Safeway).

Tip: Dress individual servings of salad. This salad tends to get soggy and won't keep if there are leftovers dressed.

Peach and Blueberry Crisp with Spiced Pecan Topping

2 oz unsalted butter, softened
3 oz (2/3 c.) flour
1/2 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. table salt

3 c. (~1 lb) room temp blueberries, washed/drained on paper towels
3 medium peaches (~1 lb) halved & sliced 1/2 in thick
1/4 c. sugar
3 Tbs. cornstarch
1/4 tsp. nutmeg

Butter a 9 in. square pan and set aside. Combine the four through cinnamon + 1/8 tsp. of salt. With your fingers work butter in until readily clumps together. Mix in pecans.

Spread fruit into pan and then press streusal on top in small lumps. Bake at 375 F on the center rack until the fruit is bubbling in the center and the topping is crisp and well browned, about 45-50 min. Cool slightly and serve!
