Notes
Substitutions:
The nectarines can be swapped for ripe peaches instead. If you choose to do this, you may want to peel the peaches so you do not have the fuzzy skin in your salad.
Storing:
Any leftovers should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge overnight. However, this salad is best eaten on the day it is made.
