I really can’t believe we are already half way through the summer! I’m sure many of you, just like me, love the fresh fruits available during this time of year. This week I have a simple recipe that goes great as an afternoon snack or an after dinner treat! Who knew something so sweet and tasty could be healthy too!

4 large peaches
2 Tbs confectioners’ sugar, sifted
1 orange
1/2 cup medium or sweet white wine, chilled

1 Using a sharp knife, halve the peaches, then remove the pits and discard them. Peel the peaches, if you prefer. Slice into thin wedges.
2 Place the peach wedges in a glass serving bowl and sprinkle over the sugar.
3 Using a sharp knife, pare the rind from the orange. Cut the orange rind into short thin sticks and place them in a bowl of cold water. Reserve.
4 Squeeze the juice from the orange and pour over the peaches, together with the chilled wine.
5 Cover and place the bowl in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to let the peaches marinate and chill.
6 Remove the orange rind sticks from the water and pat dry with paper towels.
7 Decorate the chilled marinated peaches with the strips of orange rind and serve immediately.

  1. What a fresh substitute for chips and salsa when in need of a summery hors d’oeuvres! I love peaches but this sounds like it could be good with pears too, so it could be used during other seasons as well.

    hi
    the recipe is good
    special all the diet chart is given.

  3. how is this healthy? it includes wine which is highly acidic in the body, and full of calories and sugar. Then it has white sugar. sorry I fail to see the “healthy” part here. Just eat the peaches - that’s healthy.

  4. “healthy” can be defined in many ways. And different people have different health concerns. It is up to each individual to decide if something is healthy for their body and diet. That is why I provide the nutritional information and I let the reader decide what is best for them.
