This is one of those “whatever fruit you have will work” recipes from Simply in Season. Since I had a ton of peaches (as you’ll see throughout the rest of the week as I post several peach recipes) I decided to make a yogurt peach pie.

My first time cooking in three weeks, and since it was chicken, I knew DH wouldn’t say “it would be great with chicken.” I was floored when he said “it needs some greens.”
