This was a delicious salad we had for lunch today. I was particularly pleased with the dressing using the chamomile syrup and chervil.
Serving Size: 4
Ingredients:

2 medium zucchini, cleaned
4 organic wild peaches, cleaned and sliced
1-2 avocados, peeled and cut in pieces
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1/2-3/4 cup vegan cheese, cut in pieces
for the dressing:
4 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons fine olive oil
3-4 tablespoons syrup, I used chamomile alternatives are agave, maple or fruit)
1/2 teaspoon dried chervil
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Make the dressing by mixing the ingredients and whisking to blend.
Clean the zucchini and peaches.
Slice the onion.
Cut the vegan cheese into pieces.
We used a spriralizer to create spaghetti. You can also thinly slice with a mandolin or vegetable peeler.
Slice the peaches.
Peel and cut the avocado.
To assemble, place some of the zucchini on each individual salad plate or in a large salad bowl.
Add the red onion, separated into rings.

Notes:
If wild peaches are not available, the regular ones are also fine.
Chamomile syrup is made from boiling a equal amounts of sugar and water then adding chamomile, either fresh, dried flower heads or a tea bag. Boil for few minutes to steep and gain alight yellow green color. It will keep in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks.
