Lime dressing gives lively flavor to this crunchy salad tossed with peaches, peppers and peanuts. The unusual combination is a great way to use up leftover chicken or turkey and packs well for lunches or picnics. It's also terrific with the addition of grapefruit sections or pineapple tidbits. -Diane Halferty, Corpus Christi, Texas

I just made this salad for a girls weekend at the lake and everyone just loved it. The dressing was fantastic.

I enjoyed this, but it seemed to be too much dressing. So I just added some more lettuce. Lots of good flavor!

We substituted strawberries for the peaches, and it was awesome!! Got rave reviews from everyone at a potluck.
