Stone Fruit Spinach Salad with Lemon Dill Dressing

This is the time of year that stone fruits are abundant (a fruit with flesh or pulp enclosing a stone, such as a peach, plum, or cherry).  This salad starts with a bed of spinach and then slices of your favorite stone fruits.  I used peaches and plums that I found at the market today.  Cherries and apricots would also be a great addition.  The Lemon Dill Dressing is delicious and oh so easy.  Here is what I did – I mixed together lemon yogurt, lemon juice and fresh dill.  A surprising combination and just delicious with stone fruit!
