Here’s a really quick, light, summery meal that you'll find yourself making over and over again. It comes together in 10 minutes and requires no cooking, which is perfect after a hot, busy day out and about. This recipe is designed to serve two, but you can easily scale up the ingredients if you're having more people over or need it as a side for a dinner party. The cherries and celery are an irresistible combination, and beautifully complement the spinach, chives, thyme, and goat cheese. A sprinkling of chopped dry-roasted pistachios helps tie everything together right before serving, but feel free to use whatever nuts you have on hand.
