Peaches are a delicious, fuzzy Summer fruit that can be used in many different dishes and snacks.

 

1. Make a parfait. Mix 1 tablespoon honey into a 6 ounce carton of plain yogurt. Layer the yogurt into a tall, narrow glass, with 1/4 cup chopped peaches. Top with 1 tablespoon granola.
2. Top your breakfast cereal, hot or cold, with fresh or frozen chopped peaches.
3. Make peach tea or lemonade. Muddle fresh or frozen peaches in the bottom of a glass before pouring.
4. Add sliced peaches to a fresh salad. Try starting with fresh spinach, toasted walnuts, your favorite grated cheese, peach slices and a low fat vinaigrette. Toss gently to protect the berries.
5. Mix finely chopped peaches into waffle or pancake batter or top them after cooking with fruit.
6. Add them to pudding. For something special put a vanilla wafer in the bottom of a 8 ounce custard cup. Top with 1/2 cup vanilla or tapioca pudding. Spoon chopped peaches or a couple peach slices on top.
7. Mash together a ripe, mashed banana, 1/2 cup chopped peaches and a 6 ounce carton of fruit flavored yogurt. Spoon into muffin cups. Freeze well, then enjoy on a hot afternoon.
8. Replace the jelly on a peanut butter sandwich with very ripe, slices of fresh peach. Lean over a plate to catch any juice that escapes the sandwich.
9. Peaches taste great warm from the grill! Place them on kabobs with your other favorite fresh fruit or just frill some slices and enjoy!
10. Pick up a ripe juicy peach, lean over a rail to let the juice drip and snack away!
