It took me some 4 days to find good peaches for this recipe, but I did, & I tell you, THIS SALAD IS A WINNER! The combo of flavors from the title ingredients is OUTSTANDING, & if I can't wait until next year's crop of peaches, I'll just have to see what this salad is like using canned ones! Thanks for a keeper of a recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in the current Pick-A-Chef]

I like to find recipes that are great tasting but aren't too complicated. I love using the crock pot and finding comfort foods that are do-able. I have found some great recipes in The Complete Crockpot Cookbook by Wendy Louise and in Best of the Best from Louisiana.
