# What You'll Need:

→ Produce

01 - 3 ripe peaches, halved and pitted
02 - 4 cups arugula or mixed baby greens
03 - 1 small handful fresh basil leaves

→ Dairy

04 - 2 balls fresh burrata cheese (about 7 oz total)

# How to Make It:

04 - Distribute the grilled peach wedges over the greens. Tear the burrata balls gently and place pieces among the peaches.
05 - Scatter fresh basil leaves on top. Drizzle with honey and balsamic glaze. Finish with additional olive oil, flaky sea salt, and fresh ground black pepper. Serve immediately.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The combination of warm grilled peaches and cool burrata feels like summer in every bite.
  • A drizzle of honey ties everything together and makes this salad unexpectedly indulgent.
02 -
  • If you rush the grilling, the peaches won't caramelize—give them space and time.
  • Adding the salt just before serving keeps the burrata from becoming watery.
03 -
  • Let the burrata rest at room temperature before adding; it tastes richer and blends smoothly.
  • Always keep an extra peach on hand, just in case one halves poorly—the salad looks prettier with generous fruit.
