Ingredients

  

• 2 ripe peaches sliced
• 2 large heirloom tomatoes sliced
• 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves torn
• 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp balsamic glaze
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

 

• Prepare the Peaches and Tomatoes: Start by slicing the ripe peaches and heirloom tomatoes. Arrange them on a large serving platter, alternating between peach slices and tomato slices for a beautiful presentation.
• Add the Basil: Tear the fresh basil leaves and scatter them over the peaches and tomatoes. The basil adds a lovely fragrance and flavor that complements the sweetness of the peaches and the tanginess of the tomatoes.
• Sprinkle the Feta: Crumble the feta cheese and sprinkle it generously over the salad. The creamy, salty feta brings all the flavors together in harmony.
• Drizzle with Olive Oil and Balsamic Glaze: Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and balsamic glaze over the entire salad. This adds a rich, tangy finish that elevates the dish.
• Season to Taste: Finally, season with salt and pepper to taste. Remember, a little goes a long way, so start with a pinch and adjust as needed.

Notes

Voila! Your Tomato Peach Salad is ready.

 

Serve it immediately as a refreshing appetizer or a side dish. It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, fish, or even as a light lunch on its own.

A few tips from my kitchen to yours:

 

• Use the ripest, freshest peaches and tomatoes you can find for the best flavor.
• If you prefer a vegan option, skip the feta or substitute it with a vegan cheese.
• For an extra crunch, add a handful of toasted nuts like almonds or walnuts.
