Peach, Tomato & Virginia Ham Salad
Summer salads are the perfect way to enjoy fresh produce, beat the heat with no cooking required, and spend less time preparing lunch and more time getting out and enjoying the sunshine with your family! Here at Wellshire we’re trying to soak up the sun as much as possible before the cool air sets in, so salads are an easy meal option. Which is why Peach, Tomato & Virginia Ham Salad is the way to go!
We’ve partnered with Kristen Link, a Food Educator and blogger whose website, Wellness by Kristen, is full of yummy recipes and tips on healthy living. Likewise, she recently created a recipe with our Wellshire Virginia Brand Uncured Honey Ham Nugget; we’re excited to be working with her and share her colorfully delicious summer recipe with you!
