Summer lunch

tortellinisallad1108-2

Quick summer lunch - perfect for hot days. It's fresh tortellini - this one was mushroom-filled. Asparagus, cooked for just a few minutes. Wedges of perfectly ripe nectarines. Red onions. Parmesan cheese. And a light drizzling of olive oil and white wine vinegar.

Anne,we don't get nectarines so easily here,what fruit do you think I can substitute it with?

Tora said...

I would say peaches make a reasonable substitute for nectarines, but I'm no professional!

Looks delicious Anne! Mmm!!

peaches are definitely a good alternative! Melon would be nice as well - maybe cantaloupe?
