The perfect picnic side dish

This recipe is designed for peak-of the season, perfectly ripe tomatoes and peaches from your garden or a local farm. It’s perfect for heirloom fruits — a term used to describe varieties that can’t withstand the rigors of longdistance shipping and are therefore locally grown and readily found at farmers markets. If you like, serve this salad with crusty bread to sop up the dressing.
