A wonderful way to liven up leftover chicken, this summer salad showcases fresh peaches in a tangy poppyseed dressing tossed over greens, but you may want to use nectarines, melon, berries or whatever fruit is in season. For this salad use whatever fruit is fresh and ripe. If peaches are not in season, try using melons or oranges. Nectarines are also delicious in this recipe.
