Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
  • 1 ball of burrata cheese
  • 2 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, or spring mix)
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup balsamic glaze
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Optional: toasted pine nuts or sliced almonds for crunch

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the peach halves lightly with olive oil. Place them cut-side down on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes until they develop grill marks and soften slightly. Flip and grill for another 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens and fresh basil leaves. Drizzle with olive oil and honey, then gently toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Transfer the greens to a serving platter. Tear the burrata cheese into chunks and place it over the greens. Arrange the grilled peach halves around the burrata.
  4. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the salad. If using, sprinkle toasted pine nuts or sliced almonds on top for added crunch. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Choose ripe but firm peaches for grilling. Enhance the balsamic glaze by simmering it to reduce. Add grilled chicken or shrimp for a heartier meal. Components can be prepped ahead but assemble just before serving.
