Gille Conchy | Provence Gourmet
These two fruit salads are easy yet quite different. The version with pears and almonds is well suited for a crisp October day.

Prepare the Nectarine Salad
Peel and cut the nectarines.
Chop ½ a bunch of mint leaves.
Mix and put it in your fridge. Mint will need a little time to impart its flavour to the fruit. Enjoy.
Prepare the Pear Salad
Peel, rinse and cut the pears in chunks.
Rinse and cut the grapes in two.
Mix the fruit and almond syrup in a mixing bowl, adding a bit of almond syrup, mix, and reserve in the fridge.
