Fruit Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette

Here's my take on a summer fruit salad. The twist is a Balsamic Vinegar infused with peaches or another flavor of your choice. This can be drizzled over any ripe fruit to give it a fresh tang.

Two small plums
One white peach
One nectarine
1/2 cup wild blueberries
1/2 lemon- fresh squeezed juice
One tablespoon peach infused balsamic vinegar

Chop the plums, nectarine and white into small equal sizes cubes- no bigger than an inch. Add fresh or frozen wild blueberries. Combine in a bowl. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon over everything and add one vinegar. Stir and taste. More vinegar can be added.

You can also try fig, vanilla or any other dessert flavored infused vinegar to give your fruit salad a summery taste.
