Spicy Cabbage & Peach Salad.jpg

Many fruits and vegetables could be added to this spicy cabbage and peach salad. The spicy chile oil and sweet fruit are a great combination.

Every year, when the last weeks of summer burst with an abundance of fruits and vegetables, I feel a bit like a squirrel. What can I save for the winter? What should I make now?

Each year I choose a handful of things to preserve and freeze, but I always feel like I’m being forced to pick a favorite child.

When it comes to this spicy cabbage and peach salad, there are many fruits and vegetables you could add. I love the combination of the spicy chile oil and a burst of sweet fruit, and because I had peaches, I used them. But next time, I would love to use plums, pitted cherries or nectarines. If you want to shift to a more savory salad, green onions, bell peppers, salad turnips, carrots, summer squash and cucumbers would all be great options.
