Nectarine and Mozzarella Salad

You can grill nectarines on a griddle or the BBQ then serve them in a hearty salad like this. The textures and flavours are so good together.

Strawberry and Rhubarb Tart

Sweet strawberries and slightly tart rhubarb combine to make this delicious tart. I cheat and use ready made pastry but if you’ve got pastry skills I’m sure it’s even better.
