Made with juicy peaches, savory cheese, crunchy walnuts, and tangy balsamic vinegar, this Summer Peach and Gorgonzola Pizza won third prize in the 2022 Garden Guide Recipe Contest for peaches. We loved the combination of flavors and unique twist on how to incorporate one of our favorite summer fruits into the ultimate go-to dinner staple. Congratulations to Lisa Hall!
