Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 ripe peaches, sliced
  • 1 ball of burrata cheese
  • 2 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach, or butter lettuce)
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, torn
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts or slivered almonds (optional)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Wash and slice the peaches into thin wedges. If the peaches are very ripe, handle them gently to avoid bruising.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mixed greens, peach slices, torn basil, and mint leaves. Toss gently to mix.
  3. Tear the burrata cheese into large chunks and place them on top of the salad. Handle it with care to keep its creamy texture intact.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  5. Drizzle the dressing over the salad just before serving. If using, sprinkle toasted pine nuts or almonds on top for added crunch. Serve immediately.

Notes

Choose ripe, fragrant peaches for the best flavor. Handle burrata gently to maintain its creamy texture. Customize the greens to your preference, and consider adding grilled chicken or shrimp for a heartier meal.
