Ingredients
Scale
- 4–5 ripe peaches, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt (Greek or regular, depending on preference)
- 1/2 cup whipped cream or whipped topping
- 1/2 cup toasted pecans or almonds, chopped (optional for crunch)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Peaches:
- Wash the peaches, then peel and slice them into bite-sized pieces. To prevent browning, you can toss the peach slices with lemon juice.
- Mix the Salad:
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced peaches and mini marshmallows.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the vanilla yogurt, whipped cream, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste.
- Combine and Chill:
- Gently fold the yogurt mixture into the peaches and marshmallows until everything is well coated.
- If using, add the chopped pecans or almonds and fold them into the salad as well.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and the salad to become more cohesive.
- Serve:
- Once chilled, give the salad a gentle stir. Serve in individual bowls or glasses.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a refreshing aroma and a pop of color.
