nectarine and feta situation

Been going through a bit of a phase where I throw stone fruit into things that probably shouldn't have stone fruit in them. This one actually worked though. Basically: sliced nectarines, cucumber cut into half moons, a handful of rocket, crumbled feta, and some toasted pine nuts if you can be bothered. Dressing is just olive oil, a tiny bit of red wine vinegar, and a pinch of chilli flakes. That's it. The nectarines are doing a lot of heavy lifting here — when they're properly ripe they're almost sweet enough that the feta and the chilli feel genuinely necessary rather than just seasoning. I had it for lunch twice this week which is fairly unusual for me, I don't tend to repeat things that quickly. Mind you I didn't time it especially well on Tuesday and was eating it right as a work call started so I was just sort of vibing with a fork in one hand for 40 minutes, which is not the experience I'd recommend but still, held up fine.

nectarine with salty cheese is underrated

massively underrated, took me ages to come round to fruit in savoury stuff

the sweetness cuts through the salt in a way that actually makes nutritional sense too — nectarines have a decent vitamin C hit which helps with the mineral absorption from the feta

mint leaves in this would be so good
