Peach Salad, Candied Pecans & Vinaigrette Dressing Recipes
The last thing most of us want to eat are boring salads and often we think when we want to lose weight we’re not going to be enjoying food like we normally do. I remember thinking that when I first started my journey and thankfully I learned that wasn’t true! I am excited to share this recipe with you, let me know in the comments if you also want the candied pecan and vinaigrette dressing recipes as well
